  1. In Topic: What's messing with your groove?

    Yesterday, 08:55 PM

    I work with this guy who is absolutely useless. His uselessness makes more work for me and is very hard to manage. He joined the company a couple of years ago now and I've really tried to help him get embedded and do his job well. He never takes notes, never absorbs any real detail, we go over the same issues again and again with no solutions because it's like his memory has been wiped every time we discuss it. He doesn't have any kind of condition, he's just useless and too busy trying to show off to listen. He's at the same level as me in the management structure so I can't invoke hierarchy. His manager knows he is useless but doesn't have the bandwidth to do anything about it (I'm technically mad about this but I also sympathise). He won't accept or ask for any help to get better at his job. He puts me down in front of people whenever he gets chance but can't make a decision without checking with me 1 on 1. Fortunately everyone knows I can do my job so he only embarrasses himself trying to get one up on me. I helped interview him so it's on me as much as anyone else that we made a bad hire.

    Usually I only call him out in 1 on 1 calls when I have to repeat myself to him or he does something stupid. I've given him constructive 360 feedback. Recently I upped it to small meetings and emails with only a few people copied and who I know agree with me. Today I did it in a meeting with 40 plus people in it.

    I'm completely justified SO WHY DO I FEEL TERRIBLE?!?

    Good luck QT. Parenting without ADHD can make me feel like the worst person in the world when it doesn't seem to be going well, so don't beat yourself up. It's a journey and medication is just one of the stops on the way. That's it.

    Alien Romulus. Mr PD tried to get me to see it at the movies but I ain't paying money to be disappointed by an Aliens film. Aliens is in my top 3 favourite movies. So we watched it on Disney+ yesterday.

    Didn't like it. It's watchable but you could see stuff coming a mile off. The only thing that was good for an Alien movie was the sheer number of face huggers running around. I was squirming in my seat.

    Otherwise - girl wakes up in her grey vest and knickers, girl has a very bad xenomorph filled day, girl gets back into her vest and knickers and goes into cryo sleep. The end.

    Enjoy that reading, HD. Or the eternal post apocalyptic wait.

    Or Worry mailing himself to you...

    I'm two episodes into Black Doves. It's good. Kiera Knightly usually annoys me tremendously but it's very manageable thus far, something I never expected to say.

    Yeah not too bad thanks, in spite of getting old. Everything creaks and groans. Family is OK. Work is ... work. How about you?

    And I'm back as the most recent creeper on your profile page, most excellent. What was I rambling about last night? In my defence I don't really recall leaving the bar and woke up in the cinema room of the hostel

    In the way of scrolling? Like, it takes time for the page to load? Or do you mean it is unsuitable? Or are you simply mesmerized by the cocaine snorting capabilities of Henry the happy hoover?
