Anxiety at Arrowhead: Inside the Chiefs Organization

[mredskins]

I worked for a boss very much like this. Never gave her a reason not to trust me. She was just a mean person. She would track your cell phone to ensure you were driving to your meetings. Send you emails at 10 pm and see if you answered them before the next work day. Just really crazy annoying stuff. The whole office hated her.

Yeah I worked somewhere once where my seemingly innocent conversations in a co-worker's office were secretly recorded and relayed to my boss.

Well my best buddy in the office knowing she was the way she was still went ahead and did one of the dumbest things I know to date.

He was dating (his wife now) a girl from the Philippines, she had to go back for a year before getting her citizenship here. Well for about six months he would call her to wake her up every morning from his DESK PHONE! Of course Queen Bitch finally caught on to this and went back and audit his phone and made him pay her $5k in phone bills. Mind you that $5k is way over priced becasue she used the hotel's international rates (I worked for the big M at the time and our offices were located in the hotel) when she came up with the bill. He was wrong to do it but it was ridiculously what she charged him.

Nothing like a micro-manager eh?

Always an effective style of management. People love working for someone like that.
