Re: Guess why I am not

The background
Part 1



I guess to start the story properly I need to provide a little history. Many of you know I haven’t always gotten along with my team mate at work. She is my partner, and we manage a book of business together. We don’t get along for one main difference; we have completely different working styles. Our manager keeps reinforcing 1 thing with us, if we can learn to use each others strengths we will be one unstoppable team. I just don’t see it… yet. And of course, I can't be the person who goes to him and says that I don't think his dream of us being the perfect team is EVER going to happen, b/c then I look like I am not trying, and I end up the bad guy.

I am very responsive to our clients and very organized. I am anal and very high strung (yes, I know this about myself) I am also a bit of a control freak. I don’t have the best personality type to work in a team environment.

I am paired with someone who isn’t organized at all. Who has limited computer skills, and is sick all of the time.

Long story short, our managers’ dream of us becoming an unstoppable team hasn’t happened yet. We don’t work well together and I don’t think we really even like one another.

As a matter of fact, I have reached the ultimate in frustration levels, getting so fed up that I have actually had crying fits, like a 2 year old, in the bathroom at work. It is awful. The whole company knows we don’t get along and working together is very difficult.

Now, at this point, I should take some ownership of problems within the team. In the past when I have gotten frustrated that something wasn’t done timely enough, or the hours I spent organizing files has been for naught b/c she doodles all over everything she touches, or b/c 90% of the work has fallen on my shoulders, I have run my damn mouth. Like an idiot, I expressed my frustrations within my team to other co workers. Once I realized how quickly things spread within the company and how twisted words can become I quickly learned my lesson and shut up. In fact I made a sign that hangs in my office, in front of my face, and it reads:

“Who is uuno fi seh how him gwaan soh”

This is to remind me to shut up.

Re: Guess why I am not

The Background
Part 2

I hadn’t even been at my new job for a week before I had an entire week of meetings lined up. I had to meet with the Managers of the 4 different departments that I would be utilizing in my new job. I was a little bit frustrated as someone else had already scheduled all of these meetings without speaking to me about it first. I have a problem, if I don’t eat when I first feel hungry, I get sick. Not sick like physically ill, but mentally ill. I seriously get EVIL. It is not controllable. Something takes over me and I can’t find a nice thing to say to a single person. I can’t find a nice thing to do for a single person. In fact I dream of all the evil things I can do to all of the people around me, until I have a God Damn cracker or something. For this reason, I always carry a granola bar or crackers with me in my purse.

Anyway, I digress…

So I was spending an entire day meeting these managers. Sometimes I didn’t even have the name of the person I was meeting, just an office number or meeting room name. I had met 3 of the managers at this point and was on my way to meet the fourth. I walk into his office and immediately recognize him, although I can’t recall how or where I have seen him before. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70402-thinking.gif[/img] I can see in his face that he recognizes me as well.

I shake his hand and introduce myself and I can see the light bulb go off. He knows how he knows me.
