Let me get one thing transparent right now: I ain't bitchin' about DU. :D
My workplace. It's getting more and more and more "micromanaged" and I'm very close to blowing my top.
I already have a big workload that they've recently made bigger (I'm over that and at least I'll learn something minor in the process, but they won't let me learn anything big because they want their server people to go to my location to do those tasks and I do have server experience, stupid fuckheads...) and they've implemented a new trouble ticket issuing system to help see if we have enough staff (I'm expecting one person to go 'bye bye' at the end).
But now we have morning meetings. Every single morning.
Okay, it'll last for ~15 minutes, so they claim. To discuss our open tickets. Sigh, I waste enough time and giving myself carpal tunnel by adding wordy, detailed notes into all of my trouble tickets to keep people informed and that's fair. But meetings to discuss the tickets?
But what next? It's hard to do a job that's potentially time consuming and can turn from mundane to day-long-venture without having to worry about "Oh, gotta get to the meeting, gotta get to the meeting..." every 2 freakin' seconds...
Oh yeah, every day a 'normal' priority ticket isn't closed, management gets notified. Damn right I'll be entering detailed notes into the system.
And, of course, we must use 'low' priority for projects - even though they may be of higher priority than 'normal' ones. :eyes: x(
My department isn't the only one. This micromanagement shit is company-wide and people are complaining to each other (so far I've been only a listening ear... :-) )
:argh:
