losing your calm

Started by marja (sinner)

How is it that people control themselfs when their obviously losing their temper?

I need to know because I think I will be needing this info today :). I have this new assistant, she’s horrible. Not in the talking to-kind of way, but she doesn’t understand a thing. I explained one simple thing to her over and over again, I even made her print-screens with the explanation about what she had to put in every line, and still she does it wrong. yesterday, I nearly lost it. And if things arne’t better today, I think I will be screaming at her, but that’s not the professional way to da it right? :)

I tried breathing in and out very slowly, that didn’t work. And counting to ten didn’t work either. All I want to do is hit her.

Give me some tricks

Throw her out of the window, make it look like an accident… If you’re not on the groundfloor.
Act like a bitch, she’ll look for another job soon!

that’s the best part of it. I CAN sack her, and I already told my boss that it will not work out, but he told me to wait a bit longer. So I have to endure her stupidity for a bit longer

I stayed in my office all morning and she just called me once, so that’s good. But now I want some coffee so I have to pass her desk, and I don’t want to

offcourse

she’s gone now, I managed to avoid for most of the day by going out on a very long lunch with just the ladies of the office and the boss (he likes that :)) and by pretending to have way too much work to do to answer her question. I hope next week will be or better or without her

Sometimes I REALLY need to step out of her office to get some fresh air just because of the comments she makes, but for the rest we get along fine :D

My collegue is blond, and she’s making the most silly comments you can imagine… she doesn’t know how to “wake” a portable, she started hitting the screen :rolleyes:
