Thanks to my boss's (plural) exquisite decision making, I now have to work this weekend. ](/images/smilies/bang.gif "Brick wall ](*,)")
One of my clients had their corporate executives in town for an inspection, which included a investigation of their pest control services that I provide. This is a large and high profile account which consumes much of my time. I document and record my findings and keep a running log of my services. Periodically, I bring my reports back to my office and have them computer updated and printed and compiled in a "log book" that is to be kept on the premises of said client. The finished compilation is the responsibility of my immediate supervisor. I gave him this information 3 weeks ago and he did nothing with it.
I arrive at work this morning at 5:30 a.m. at my boss's instructions, in order to have said information completed and ready to deliver to client. He arrives at 7:00 a.m. Get my work done and deliver to client. Client has questions, which I offered to explain at that time, but I was told "not necessary".
Inspector calls my company with unanswered questions. I'm contacted by my supervisors and told I did not perform expected tasks properly; drop whatever schedule is in progress and meet with client.
Bottom line is, I didn't get my work scheduled for today done because people who are higher up than me didn't do their job! Now I have to work tomorrow because I had to "cover" their asses and at the same time, let it look like I was the one who dropped the ball. Sometimes I just want to tell them "YOU GUYS ARE FUCKING IDIOTS"!!
