Devil Wears Prada

Ok, I haven't written much about work, but my boss has some total "Devil Wears Prada" moments! Yesterday was no exception. I work in a very small office and we crank out a lot of work. There are 3 of us working on 11 hotels & convention centers. So lets just say we are a little strecthed, and my boss refuses to just be the name behind the firm, but thinks she is still the working force. Except she doesn't like to work, but if something goes out with out her blessing, she goes coocoo! So yesterday she comes in and asks "so does anyone need me today" The reality is I never need her bceuase if you ask her to do anything as small as it may be-it doesn't get done and then I get busted. So at 9:30am she proceeds downtown to Neimans for shopping with her personal shopper. Needless to say she did not return the rest of the day. Today she comes in reads her email and then quizzes all of us about what SHE didn't know about and says, "well I don't know how that could have happened, I must have missed a meeting" That's code for since I am never in the office I have to cover up with I missed a meeting. If we didn't make any decisions when she wasn't here she would never get any hotels complete! Her 10 hours a week(just to read email) wouldn't cut it! I am sure her little shopping spree yesterday was more than my years salary, I just hope there is some left for the Christmas bounus, lord know we are the ones who deserve it! Working the 50+ hours per week that I do!
