So my boss’s boss spammed my coworker with meetings and told her to just “manually fix” a bunch of files that didn’t convert properly (scenario changed to protect privacy)
She requested that I send my file over after hours, and asked if my coworker would be willing to work overtime during the weekend to get it done. She then said that she can have a couple of days off during the week once this project is done. (And from experience she will just request that these days be taken at a later time)
However
1) the team pulls OT on the regular and this was not offered to other team members
2) fixing the files manually would be akin to adding numbers up manually in excel and hard coding the individual cells
I’ve handed in my notice, so I don’t care what she thinks of me anymore, she’s not even my direct supervisor so I don’t need her for a reference either.
So I told her that there were hundreds of files awaiting her review, and if she wanted to review the same type then she can as there were a lot of files already in the system. I also told her that I will be showing the team how to use my files on Monday as it can get a bit intensive. It processes hundreds of lines of data and if something goes wrong then… gl trouble shooting and finding the discrepancy.
Just wanted to rant about this
