Today I saw the other side of my boss. I mean everyone has to sides, the side you show to people and the side that you don't often show.
Personal opinion: I feel that usually higher management have to show a certain amount good tempermental skils, especially in front of surbodinates. Because as the higher management, it is you who is supposed to set an example to the surbodinates and is actually a reflection on the department.
So anyway, today an alarm system was installed at my office. I mean yeah ok, normal, installing the alarm system, considering that I work in Cisco. Alarm being alarm will have cables and naturally cables will have covers right? I mean, its common sense. But my boss was out for a meeting when the guys came to do it, so they just did their job and then my boss sent an sms to our colleague to tell the guys to do not have cable covers. But by then, the entire job was almost done. Everything was drilled and then my boss slammed her way in. Sheesh, that look on her face, I sure hope that she'll never because of me give that look. But anyway, she came into the office and started screaming at the work guys how ugly it was and how the colour of the sable covers did not match the wall colour. Sheesh, she was there ranting and ranting and going on about how ugly it is. And best, she made those guys take out everything, pull the cables out and made sure the cables were to be installed hidden. Also, they were to cover the drill holes with the same coat of paint colour of the wall.
And after all the ranting, it was done.
Sigh and that's my boss.
