The reason I am asking this as i just gone on to my emails as I need to get something ready for a meeting Monday and thought do it now as a quiet night.

I had an email from some one connected to one of my bosses saying they asked me to do something and showed the email they sent me and some other people and said I had not done it, ccing me in too, sort of a polite chase but showing me up. Well.. the person never even put in the original email asking me (sorry my crystal ball doesn't work) and the best thing is my boss noticed and said that to him :) I wait an apology.

I worked for a department that finished off a process and people handed me the paper file. Apparently this person gave it me in my hand on the Monday. They remember me saying thanks. That was a bit hard as i did not work a Monday, It suddenly appeared on my desk the next day. They looked a idiot.

One woman asked me to put some news in a weekly roundup I did but i went back and said too long, get it back to me by a deadline and i can put it in. She never. When the news came out she ccd big boss asking why not gone in. I happily attached my email to her.

Finally (always seem to be work ones, I am old and worked along time), a file of papers went missing from a big central file and loads of us spent days looking and then it suddenly appeared on the person's in charge of the file desk. We had all looked there and made us look stupid. We then found out off someone else she saw her getting it out of her bag. We never had it out with her but all the admins just did the minimum for her and never went above and beyond. She eventually left.

I await your stories.

I’m waiting for a person to get pulled up for the way they speak to others. So rude. Shout when management around.

I got up from my desk the other day and went to check registration of car blocking a side gate. The person standing next to our manager (they were about 8 feet away from me) said loudly when I got back 20 secs later and they saw me walk to the window and back.. Kiss where have you been get back to your desk .

Me to manager: Please talk to X.
X is so rude.

X just laughed .

I was deadly serious- one day I will snap. No idea if manager got the message as my tone was serious and my face doesn’t hide my feelings

How rude. I hope the manager does tell them.
