“So, I started a new job several months ago. I was happy with the move and thought I had finally found a place where incompetent and neurotic people were gone. Unfortunately not so.

Turns out my boss is an idiot. Sure, he knows a small portion of the overall scheme of our little department, but has absolutely no idea what my part is. (and I do have one, mind you!)

We had some mishaps several weeks back that caused some discomfort. And since he refused to say anything, I did a little snooping to find out how much trouble I might be in. Well, it appears that my boss has been emailing some of my old colleages to find out exactly what my role in the department should be. He even asked one of my former co-workers for a description of my job.

Now granted, I shouldn’t have been snooping, but then if he had a problem with how I was performing my job, it would have been nice if he had discussed it with me first before telling everyone that I suck. Meanwhile, he doesn’t even know enough to know what my job description is! He had to ask other people! And this person is in charge of me! I’ve been working in the same industry for 8 years, so a little credit would have been nice.”
