It's getting more and more annoying. For the time being I work in the catering and hospitality sector via an agency and I often encounter people who are positioned to be in charge of the 'job' but just can't communicate when necessary.
This morning I received an e-mail which mentioned that I didn't do well enough. Well in the situation in that moment my so called seniors/managers were better at chatting and picking their noses than communicating their instructions, intelligence and expectations for the day. I detest those situations.
One of my former work places had this chef personnel who was always nitpicking and complaining when things didn't go well and he was quite annoying because of that trait. Yet because of that I was so determined to silence him to stupidity by overmatching his work expectations I learned a lot. At one point he almost blindly trusted me.
I just had to get this off my chest. My disgust for professional nose picking socialites is sometimes too much to bear...
