Frustrating bosses

This week, i got somehow pissed by my bosses over quite a few issues.

On monday, it was my dept boss who firstly get unusually worked up over a small problem, then directed his anger at my section head. Turned out, it was not what he thought after i presented some clear damning evidence which would have clarified the whole thing from the start.

Then on tuesday, we had a presentation by one of our suppliers. Midway through it, my group head decided that he was not getting the information he wanted to hear. He promptly told the supplier that maybe i, as the arranger of this presentation, did not convey the agenda correctly.

I was damn tulan frustrated because I was not the one who was initiated or wanted this presentation. If he has an idea of what he wants, shouldn’t he make them known, at least to me? so that i can let the supplier prepare beforehand rather than that sarcastic question aimed towards me? It was obvious that our expectations of this presentation was so bloody different.

I realised that i cannot expect my bosses to behave in a manner i thought they should. Since i am not at their level, i cannot apprehend their thoughts and needs and all the more, i feel detached from them. Simply put it, cannot connect lah.

Its thurs morning now and i am sitting in front of my desk. I need to see a doc later for my bloated tummy.
