for crying out loud
can we do nothing right in my dept?
i'm listening to a painful discussion between the manager of one of our divisions and a consultant brought in to help us respond to a request for proposal. the consultant, hired by the group working with us to reorganize the department, is trying to get information about all of the arms of our business, and sounds as if he's never spoken to anyone here or dealt with anyone here in the past, ever, and is pulling information from this manager, who doesn't know anything either.
seriously.
i have to keep printing out pages of information and handing them to the manager, because he's friggin lost. and he's been here 47 years.
and i keep getting called in to explain how we do business. WHY? ARGH.
