and my boss isn't on the call and I get grilled about something she thinks that I don't agree with her on. At least once I just said she's my boss and I have to do what she says they said fair enough and dropped it.
I hate being in a meeting...
- Thread starter Glenn's Take
- Start date
What actually happened: you said she's the boss......for now......and the rest said 'that's fair, a worthy victim (whispered)' and dropped it knowing you would take care of the 'problem'.
OP needs to check in a few threads down to the homosexuality thread.
Nope, not even once when drunk in college.
It just sucks having to sit there and put up some defense to people you agree with.
Glen- Have you dropped your rule of not looking female colleagues in the eye now that you are working remotely?
Rub one out, take a sht, do ten pushups, drink a Coke or do some coke. You’ll feel better
I'm a NMA fan an all but I'm into this video most. Not the prettiest, but I'm sure nothing is off the table. Right over the plate for me.
And on topic, I'll shove it down their throats for fun. You wouldn't want your people laying it off on you. Ain't nothing but a job.
Serious question is what do I say? I can't defend something I don't think is correct and she never did tell me her objection to the problem.
Glenn, you could have put one over the fence by saying, “by damn, she should have the right, the respect, to personally defend her/this position when she is in the meeting, personally. And I won’t participate in making a Roman Holiday of her thinking, until she is present to defend it!!!”
Standard reply should be: ‘I understand your position and will discuss it offline with leadership and get back to you’. Anything diplomatic than looking like you’re at the mercy of chick managers.
I have stated my “opinion” about a policy or directive same as you or others... I don’t live in a glass house...
But I don’t think I’m wrong saying, it can be a poor play on anyone’s part to challenge the boss/system/the man
etc. Yeah that asked what you thought and felt it gave you some freedom and she wasn’t there... Had she been there would you have challenged her in front of a Zoom call in front of all? Think “team player” Glen and all that neat **** that gets tossed out... But perhaps some might say... “hummm that Glen guy has a point”... and you bust a move to Corporate... Naaaaaanice dream
