I work hard

I have a pretty cushy job. I don’t have to lift things. I don’t often have to think too hard.

When my job is hard, it is because I am given incomplete information, or I am being pressured by persons who can’t or won’t understand what my limitations are.

People need to remember that I am only one person, and I do everything that comes across my desk. If it comes into my purview, it usually is mine to deal with forever. No one jumps in when I get backed up. No one helps out when I don’t know where to find an answer. I have to keep chugging along until I figure it out.

All of this is to say, if you don’t like what I am doing, you need to tell me, in explicit terms, what it is that you expect.
