Demotivated

Despite the epic explosion a couple of weeks ago, regarding the way work was allocated with a priority of “yesterday”, or “we need this by the end of today, but we’ll give it to you at 4pm”, it’s still happening.
Today’s gem involves a full competition that needs to be completed for Friday. Only Arsehole Boss, in his infinite wisdom, has forgotten that both web developers for the company are away tomorrow and Friday at @Media. Oh, and also the super-super-urgent work that AB needs doing, but that he hasn’t yet actually bothered to tell anyone exactly what he wants.
It’s a good day. Honest.
Know that feeling too well, I have a boss who sits on work also, then I get blamed for it being late, except I’m good at ducking flying shit so it usually explodes all over him. Doesn’t half demotivate you and makes you wonder if it’s worth working hard or whether you should follow his lead and be promoted for sounding like you do loads whilst doing squat!!!!
