I've been having a hard time keeping my cool at work. My boss is a good guy, but he is SO disorganized, and just cannot communicate. His wife confirmed to me that he has a speech disorder-- the words get mixed up between his brain and his mouth. It helps to know I'm not just insane, but doesn't make it less frustrating. I am tired of having to repeat the same thing three different ways to get us on the same page. And of asking him the same question multiple times (I think the average is like three) before he actually answers the questions I'm asking. ARGGGH!! And he gets frustrated too, because I'm taking up time where he could be working (i.e. running around like a chicken with his head cut off trying to do 5 things at once because it's more efficient, but with no plan, so that it takes 3 times longer than if he had just taken the tasks one at a time)
Another thing I find annoying is that he hovers over me telling me to do what I'm already doing. OR when he tells me to do something, then when I bring him the results responds with "That's not what I wanted" I ask if he wants me to fix it, and he responds with "it's okay, it's better than nothing" The problem is that it's just going to be another thing for me to fix later.
