EFFING MICROMANAGEMENT! Life stinks.
My employer has done witchhunts before. Now they're imposing micromanagement of everything we do.

We're also expected to do more work. I've got 2 big projects to be done by the end of this week and I was asked to do an inventory of computer equipment I had put in a satellite office. I was going back down there tomorrow to do several other things, but she wants it done TODAY. So I get to waste an hour's worth of time driving just to catalogue 2 petty items and 2 old computers. (gee, my boss also wondered why I didn't get another project done two weeks ago when I said it would. Could it because I already have a steady stream of work to do that must also be completed within a timeframe, complete with micromanagement, D-U-H?!) Not to forget the barrage of meetings we now have to attend daily...

I'm almost at the point where I'm going to quit, and you know what I'll do if that happens... I'm tired of this shit, other people have already quit or gone on early retirement because of it... it's a mess.
