I am just ranting, but right now I am a little pissed.
As IT we have to deal with everyone, and some of the people are so hard to work with. ARGGGGGGGGGGG :|
I need to get out of IT.
**EDIT**
So I have calmed down a bit. But here you go with the situation.
This lady wants the project done immediately, but will not bother spending the time going over specifications. I have been trying to get together with her for the last month. All she does is talk down to me, and then get mad that the thing isn't done yet. I finished it, by talking to a lot of people in the department and different regions (which took me an exorbitant amount of time) to figure out the business needs, and all she had were negative things to say about it when we did a test phase on the project today, and she kept talking down to me. Drove me nuts, especially since my boss was there and she has a knack for adding/promising "functionality" to the program and making it seem like she did a large part of the project (in which case she didn't oversee it at all). So I have to sit there and bear it while cruching the numbers in my head how long it will take to make all of those major changes. :roll: <sigh>
Since I deal with so many people, some people are a lot harder to deal with. Most of the time I have dealt with the people well, and I have had a reputation in all the regions for being a pretty amiable guy to deal with, but every once in a while there is someone who comes in who thinks they can just talk down to you the whole time. The sad thing is, as IT you always have to grin and bear it and try to resolve the situation when all you want to do is clobber the person.
