That sucks.

Poop rolls downhill.

A good leader would have told you to get it done no matter what, check your inbox regardless, and covered HIS bases.

Sorry man, but YOU shat the bed a bit by ASSuming the electrician didn't have his P&Qs together either.

Overall, the buck stops with him, and any "underperformance" (not exactly what happened) on your part is his failure to get from you what he needs in a timely fashion.....still, I think you passively exacerbated the trend because the guy is a twerp and you flat out don't like him.

I go by my old man's addage of "kiss their ass until you kiss 'em goodbye".

Make amends, not apologize but make it clear that you see WHERE your contribute to the F up lies, promise to do better, and take his effin job when the corksucker leaves in a year.

ASSuming he leaves.;)

I like all these ideas....I just found out yesterday I was passed up for two different promotions, both to people less qualified than I am, but both are engineers...qualifications not needed or requested for either role.

I are not happy

Sounds like a real winner there... :rolleyes: His intent was to set you up or he wouldn't have approached it like he did... you can either quit or deal with him the best you can.

Is there any one, like his boss or HR, that you can complain to about the situation?

Teh Boob Man is wise.

I would stay out of his way and don't screw up. If that's all the ammo he has against you, I wouldn't sweat it too much. If I was in your situation, I would just dig in. I would also be prepared for the chance that he might (and maybe it's just my paranoia but I have seen this in other departments) try to hire someone just as if not more qualified than you or start to groom his desired replacement.

Either way, making friends with some corporate overlings couldn't hurt. Off the job stuff like golf, racquetball or strip clubs...

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
