Better call this entry 'Friday afternoon work dreadfulness' in order to stay work-safe

Appalling office politics taking place. I hates it, I hates it I do. But I'm guessing it happens wherever office moves are planned.

I also hate bullying managers. The technique used by this particular specimen is to state an assumption as a fact. If you point out that it's an assumption, he waits a few minutes, then states it again as a fact. When you challenge it again, he then labels you as unhelpful. Personally I think he suffers from being stressed and insecure in his job but I'm buggered if I'm letting it mess up my priorities.

( And now, a rant on terminology which is not-worksafe. No, I mean it. Not work-safe. )

Can you tell it's Friday afternoon?
