Today I decided to start pushing my coworker to get her tuckus in gear so we could train on my reports. This has been an ongoing drama. Mind you, she promised to do this so I could go on vacation in return for me relieving her. After learning Friday that she didn't have access to the area needed I asked her to email the person listed for said access. this morning I asked if she received a response. After sifting through her various emails she said no. Fuck this shit. I got on the phone to call the person and was told they never received an email and to please resend. After hanging up she said she forgot to send it. *grumbles* A half hour later she STILL didn't send it. When the email finally went we received a response saying she should have access and to please try. Forty minutes later I said that if she didn't at least check I was going to pitch a fit. She said she'd check... but didn't have time to train. I stared. I opened my mouth. I just stood there. She didn't even read the detailed instructions (READ: six pages) that I wrote. After checking and giving me the thumbs up she added, "Don't worry if I don't do this right. It will be on me that I didn't do it and not you." WTF!?! I think my heart stopped for a moment. She said it as if she was ordering tea. I couldn't even respond. Apparently the work I do isn't important to her so she's ignoring the fact that I busted my ass to create it. Some people can just shrug things like this off, but I can't. When I use the numbers I want them to be right. I have the top brass reading them.

Later on she decided to do an admission to 'get used to it'. She ignored my instructions and didn't write down a damn thing. Again with the lack of consideration. Her desk is piled high with duties and none of them are done. At the end of the day I was so annoyed I said that my old boss taught me something very valuable (yes, she actually taught me good things). She taught me to speak up BEFORE I get overwhelmed so I can get help. That way I don't produce a bunch of half assed projects instead of some that I am proud of. I don't think she even got it. At 4pm she mentioned that we'd train tomorrow. You're damn right we will.
