You just finish having your weekly meeting with your boss* and after reviewing all of your projects with her it is clear that she is visibly annoyed and frustrated with your performance.
Do you:
a) Attend her team meeting a half hour later that is on the calendar or,
b) Do you forget about it because you are out to lunch?
*Please note that I am the visibly annoyed and frustrated boss in this situation!
Am I wrong to assume that if your boss is expecting more from you (and has blatantly said those words on more than one occasion), than maybe you should step up and try harder?
Oh, and to quote Major Dick who emailed me this yesterday: "I have created a monster [out of you]". Well, yes, yes he has.
