mornin'
Mrs. got hit with something out of the blue this week because she told a company conference planner "I need more training on this." Major Bee-yatch from NYC got all huffy and said she should know that already.
How, exactly if she's never been trained?
Wife was stuned, but didn't back down. Told her immediate bosses "I come from a background where it's a good thing to ask questions."
I told her to not let it worry her. There's a Major Bee-yatch in every organization. Sometimes they're wimmin, sometimes they're ~really~ bee-yatchy men.
Heh heh...like Dr. J...heretoforth known as Dr. JB-Y.
He keeps going, he's gonna have a nickname a mile long.
Haven't heard a word from him since the email blasting Steve yesterday about the submission error. Steve will regretfully, but hopefully be able to meet with the advisor today to get the hard-copy format-check document signed off. It's not a final draft sign-off...just a sign-off to have the format guy check it.
We worked on getting the format "just so" till about 2am out here in the shop (right beside My Precious Beetle). There were actually templates and examples online but didn't know it. (Now we know that it was probably what the secretary meant when she said "Check online how to do it." Unfortunately, the Submit Online is online too and that is what he thought he was supposed to do. Not to mention that Dr. JBY *told* Steve he didn't need a hard copy!
Lord, what a worthless piece of humanity that guy is.
Ok...I've got to get off-line in case he calls. He's definitely going to Stillwater, I may have to take him if he can't get the BOB.
Will check in when I know more, but at this point we're just waiting for the format sign-off and any potential revisions.
I'm sure the Missus can handle bee-yatchy New York women just fine; she's a GRITS, after all. ;o)
