Ever since we've moved offices, I've been disrupted by visitors looking for the Office Manager more than anything. If she's not at her desk, which seems to a be regular occurrence, visitors talk to ME. I am right by the door in plain view.

There is at least one visitor a day. There have been two this morning and the OM informed me where to find a cheque for someone if they dropped by. Ugh. I don't know know all the details of the goings-on around here. That's what the Office Manager is for.

When I leave this hell hole, I almost hope there is no exit interview. It would not surprise me at all if there wasn't one. At least I can avoid telling them how I really feel. I never want to burn bridges.

What do I like most about working here? The work.

What do I like least about working here? Where would I start? The non-supportive team members? The non-existent micromanager? The lack of process for anything? The lack of communication? Everyone passing the buck?

I would not be so choked had my manager been honest with me from the beginning. I asked all the right questions during my interview so I could decide if I would like the environment. He made things sound promising and that he was 100% behind on having process and having the Technical Writer play a huge role in development.

I have yet to be part of a development meeting. I get updates for interface text requests afterwards. My boss isn't in the office half the time. He doesn't mention when he is away on vacation or when he will be gone for days on end. He's never offered me any feedback. He has not done anything -- not one thing-- to help me succeed with my job at all.

I guess I could take on a more proactive approach, but why bother? I've hit so many dead ends on various facets.
