What do you do when your boss says to you, "Half the time i'm not paying attention to you."? |
The boss complained that her co-gen management team wasn't managing properly, and wasn't keeping her informed of what was going on. If she says she's not paying attention to you half the time, smile and say 'thank you. It's rewarding to be trusted to do my job." Ask her to define what she's looking for information-wise. Does she want a daily bullet-point list of significant events? Or a phone call? Weekly status report? Make her be specific about her expectations with respect to performance AND information. That means you can fool around and do other things at work without him noticing or finding out about it. Lol! Well, this is a chance for you to step up and try to keep your boss informed about what's going on. Start showing up for work at midday. A COUP! I love coups... I'm sure your boss has someone above her. Complain to them. Or quit... and if you can't afford to quit then just deal with it. It's all about being the bigger person. Say, "Well maybe if you would listen more you would be more informed of what was going on around here." Then, if she get pissed give your 2 weeks notice. They could always pay for unemployment. find a new job. CC your boss (and if you can her own boss as well) on all your e-mails. If she then complains that she is not being kept up-to-date, she will look really bad for not paying attention. |
