Mar. 13th, 2022 06:46 amWork continues to rub me the wrong way.
Thursday we had a meeting that I had been waiting for since November. Where I was to go over my work with VISA and propose a training schedule. My bosses were on it and the VP of the claims area where this work belongs. Well, my bosses rolled over as the other VP said he would not take now since we are not giving hime a person to do this and he wants to know how long this function takes. I had said in several emails and restated that this job is at least 3 hours a day and sometimes 4. He bitched and balked and my VP and my boss said nothing. What am I supposed to say that is professional at my non management grade. Oh, I know what I wanted to say...but I need the paycheck for the mortgage. It ends up with me having to submit a report of second to second detail of the function. Not sure what that will do if this guy can veto claims work coming to the claims department. Sigh.
Immediately after my boss calls me. I braced for impact. I reflexively asked if she was called to tell me I did something wrong. She said no and started ranting about how she is the only manager that doesn't get to say no and how she is the lowest rating manager (no shit)...etc... um the poor me stuff doesn't help me. She treats me like shit and I am supposed to feel bad for her? I did say that I thought it was strange that none of my management said a work and it left e feeling exposed.
Oi.
Friday we have a meeting and find out how we are going back to work. They are sending groups in flights. Our team will be Thursdays and Fridays one week and then Monday Tuesday and Wednesday the next for better control and we would still have our weekends at home. My eyebrow arched off my head at that one.
They hough this was better than doing it every other week and told us we should agree or we would have to come in EVERYDAY. That as adults we should act like this is best. Great...so I am not impressed with this New VP either. This is the second time I have met him via phone.
I think this scheduling is stupid and was expecting something permanent like every Monday Tuesday Wednesday...but it is no skin off my back. People needing child care just gasped. One person, a grandmother, said that she didn't want the booster so that she could stay home as she was not fully vax'd.
The boss told her that all she needed was 2 shots...and that the bank didnt care about boosters. You could see she was sad, but was afraid to speak out. We know that she takes care of her infant grand daughter.
Then they give us the seating. There is no social distancing and we will be moved to a place where people will be 3 feet beside you and 2 feet behind you...so close that if a coworker is a tad heavy, like myself, will have to ask people to get up to let me out to go to a printer or go to the restroom. There are 6 people in a row. I can only hope I am on an end cap...but if I know my boss she will crowd me in just to irk me and to keep me quiet. That wont work as my team lead is in PA and I will have constant phone training. We shall see. It should also be funny because I plan to sketch between the time I get there and 6 AM if they wont let me start early (if I take the ride in with Dad my commute is 5 minutes).
She also said that we are lucky and wont be wearing masks. I said that I would as I am in close contact with several family members who have COPD and I really don't want to give them anything where we cannot keep ft apart. She said "suit yourself...I think it's stupid"
Right after I texted the team leader on my phone. She was in the meeting and everyone was talking about her desk and such. I asked if they were okay with her working at home? She asked if I meant management or the floor. I said I dint give a crap what the floor thinks I just wanted to know if I was still working with her. So far she is able to work from home full time. That may change if people complain, but so far so good.
She mentioned the Boston lady with the grandchild. I said she is in her 70s and I bet will retire. We shall see.
