I know Dingbat Fatigue, but it comes in all forms, you know. My managers are engineers, so they might be a little different. (I can see sharkey rolling his eyes, LOL!) We have to go through so much ethics training, that managers where I work can't even look cross-eyed at an employee or they can get in trouble. Our next big awareness training is harassment and intimidation. And this has nothing to do with the Union. It all flows down from the highest levels of management. I think it might be going to extremes though, but I think it's all good, because there are a lot of neanderthals still out there!
(Hope you got some good music for your party tonight! I put on some Talking Heads this morning to get me out of this funk. The last song is Take Me to the River. You'd like the first one: Psycho Killer. LOL!!!)
No, I don't think you quite grasp the dingbat problem. There are bad bosses, not quite up to the job supervisors, absent-minded airheads, insufferable boors, complete a$$holes, dumb@ss buffoons and arrogant, self-absorbed jerks, but this woman is in a league all her own. This woman is such an idiot, it is truly amazing that she can remember to breathe. Spend 10 minutes with her and you can come up with 15 more definitions each of the words "incompetent, annoying, ignorant and infuriating."
