Are You Serious?

Okay so why is this woman bragging about being “well known” in a damn bar? “I’m getting a chair with my name on it!”..LOL

Okay I want you to be doing better in your damn 40s. That’s like having a drink named after you in a club, because ur there ALL the time. No one over 30 should consider this an accomplishment…

Boss Day...

Under normal conditions and circumstances I would happily acknowledge this day. It’s a day to show gratitude and appreciation to the person (s) who leads the team, goes beyond the call of duty on behalf of everyone, and is always willing to be there for you.

Well I don’t know any such person. In fact, I strongly dislike my boss. But I did feel a need to commemorate the occasion since I did manage to remember the day. I found it rather difficult to find the most appropriate greeting card. They all said things that I felt didn’t fit her. She’s not a good leader, she doesn’t go beyond the call of duty on my behalf, she isn’t a pleasure to work for, and she’s not the best boss. So I ordered flowers from a vendor we always use to deliver the flowers (didn’t come out of my pocket).

Well, an hour later I cancelled them due to this email from dumb ass.

Background:
She asked me to contact a vendor for our annual holiday tenant event. I called them on Friday gave them the basic info: We expect 300 people and are looking to do a lunch type of deal. The lady was very corporative and emailed me a PDF file with their menu items and prices per person. Because of pas experience I dint want to take the imitative and choose the menu items, since she’ll just come up with her shit. So I placed the print outs in her pending file on her desk. I then get this email attack.

Her:

I do not see a bid for the Holiday event from the above vendor. Please call and have them put together two menu options for bid purposes as e discussed on Friday.

Thank you.

Me:

Attached to the paperwork behind whatever info you gave to me (on your desk) you will find their menus items. They list the menu options and prices. Once you decide which menu you want to go with they will present a formal proposal…

Her:

I understand that but I asked that you speak with them and describe to them what we like and have them present 2 different menu options.

Dumb Ass
Property Manager


Me:

This is why emails are not always the best form of communication. What is giving you the indication that I didn’t speak to anyone and give them details on our needs? I understand that but I asked that you speak with them and describe to them what we like


Barbara (lady I spoke to) gave me the menu options so we can decide what food items we wanted. She is aware of a lunch type of menu; I didn’t make any decisions because I wanted you to look through their options, just in case you didn’t like what I choose. So to save the effort I gave you the menu items for your review, and based off what you want, they will be more than happy to provide a formal proposal.




Can someone please explain to me what part doesn’t this incompetent loser doesn’t understand?

Dumb Ass and Her Email Attacks..

So today I get another one of dumb ass’ infamous email forwards. It’s a media clip of some dogs. Mind you I don’t like you and don’t share any kind of side chit chat with this woman. If it’s something I feel is retarded (in subject matter) I like to forward it to a few friends who know my working situation with this moron.

Anyway here the email convo between my girl and I who use to work with me:

Dumb Ass Email w/ attachment:

This will make you smile!

Dumb Ass
Property Manager

Friend:

Okay, why are you included in on the bulls*** email list, but you can’t get info on important work issues.
Tell her to stop watching animal planet


Me:

LOL, My point exactly….

Friend:

She is useless. She should have been sending out them damn late letters!

Things Never really change...

I was out ill all last week per my doctor’s order. So this means Dumb Ass was going to actually have to take on the role of multi tasking. Well there were few things that needed to be done for sure: 1. Bank deposits (beginning of every month-tenants are paying rent) 2. She was “suppose” to go to Office Max to return some items because something she needed is only available in store. 3. Late letters to deliquent tenants MUST go out on the 6th of every month (this month it fell on Friday).

You can aSSume that only bank deposits were made because she “didn’t get a chance to do anything elses”. Now let me forget or just flat out not issue out the late letters. Especially when she takes it upon herself to remind me every month (like I don’t have the dates written every month on my calendar).

Anyway, I come in and find this in my inbox this morning:


Chickie,

We need to get the Office Max account straightened out. Please fax a written request for the invoices that HSBC is saying are outstanding to 877-605-4321, reference the Office Max account number on this request. Also you can contact someone at HSBC at 1-800-365-2713. We are being charged late fees for this so I would like this issue resolved this week.

Thanks!

Dumb Ass
Property Manager


My Response:

I am unable to detect if there’s a question in this email in regards to me making an attempt to contact Office Max re: our account. I have spoken to someone regarding this issue a week and a half ago. So someone on their end has missed the notes on our account.

I just received in the mail this morning the mailed invoices/statements as per my request from a prior customer service rep who also told me the late charge will be waived. I will call them again today to make sure our account as been updated with the previous conversation notes and the late fee removed.

Better Days Are Ahead

So we just found out that the new owners of our building as of January of this year; has decided to make us (the management team) full time employees under Southern Methodist University (owners). I thought it was the best news of the year.

Why?:
1. I hate the company I work for anyway, and was actively looking for better opportunities.

2. Queen Bitch (my boss) will now have to conform to the commands of the new owner, and can no longer hide her stupidity under her current equally retarded boss.

3. I am trying to get into their grad school, which means as an employee; I can go to school for FREE. (Saves me about $41k for a 16 months program)

The only bad part for my co-workers (building engineers and dumb ass) is they’ve already given my current company 10 plus years of service. Now they are essentially starting over. I am the only rookie on this team, giving my crappy company only 18 months of service.

But cheers to a new beginning! I love change; it’s time for Dumb Ass to get her shit together now.
