Fiddling the Boss

Ramadan Kareem Oh Hamsterettes…

The latest from the Queens Den:

I am making my boss do my work :)

The other day…

Boss: Tahseer, I have these papers that I have to submit it to you for my grant, shall I give
it to you, or would you want me to mail it to Finance.
Me: *without thinking of course* yea, send it to finance. I will be doing that anyway.
Boss: So I give it to Finance?
Me: Yes, you have my permission.
Hamster Voice in Head: Stupid fool!

Granting my boss permission to do my work, wasn’t enough for me… yesterday…
Boss: I reviewed the application you sent me. I should be given to Dr. So-in-So for further
evaluation

Now, I am not sure what really happened but the conversation ended up like this:
Me: Yea, just pass it to her yourself. Her office is right across the corridor anyway.
HVH: Sigh… I wish I would disappear.

Talking about disappearing… there is this issue that I need to resolve about staff members setting up their office in a meeting room, that I THOUGHT was under the jurisdiction of the department I am working for. Being asked about permissions to this room, I started talking about jurisdiction and the ‘verdict’ of the co-odinator. Now, this was all an informal email between me, my boss’s boss and the co-doinator of the department at hand. The next day, in a follow up meeting between my boss’s boss and myself…
Boss’s Boss (BB): So, this is The Other Company, and here nothing belongs to no one.
Everything belongs to The Other Company.
Me: … ok.
HVH: *what is this leading to? What did you do now?*
BB: I sit in this room, but I don’t own it. Similarly, you sit in your office, but you don’t
own it.
Me: *imaginary puke on the table… you know… cause I am scared and all*
BB: If someone from up there *points to ceiling… referring to upper management* tells me
that I am going to share my office with some on, and I say a no, The next morning, I
will find that person in my office. To that, I will thank them *points to ceiling…
referring to upper management* for informing me.
Me: *tries to disappear by hiding under the table*
BB: *looks at me with a mischievous smirk* SO, there is no jurisdiction involved here…
we all should live together as a happy family.
Me: *smiles sheepishly, trying to think why I ever said anything about jurisdiction and
kingship!*
