I am so frustrated I could cry. Sorry, long.
Ok, as most of you know, my office is moving next week. I was shown the setup 3 weeks ago by my boss, and was given a pretty favorable seating arrangement. I had a great little office right across from him, and the rag that does no work ever, was around the corner from us, a little bit removed. Let me preface this by saying I was given this persons job because she is horrible and as luck would have it, my boss was fired when her boss was able to expand. She does nothing all day but her personal stuff, things for her website etc. When given projects they get tossed aside for weeks at a time. She shows no initiative, comes in late every single day, and has made it no secret that she has no interest in doing this as her career. She also makes terrible mistakes in her work, that will eventually cost us money.
Fastforward to this morning. I was shown the final seating arrangment, and a huge glaring change was made. We had to give up 3 offices to another company, so seating had to shift. In this process I was moved all the way down from my boss, across from people that I don't work for and that the lazy ass does work for. She was given the spot right across from him in the sweetest location in the office. Now, this really wouldn't annoy me so much, but for the fact that she is constantly, CONSTANTLY jockeying for position with me. She is pissed that her job was given to me...and since then has done everything in her power to make the situation uncomfortable.
Now, my boss will take the position that he took when he told me about how she was going to get screwed 'she's lucky to have a job like all of us are, so there really isn't much we can do for her'. Do I even bother to open my mouth about the fact that she was so obviously pacified in the process? It really infuriates me that he just won't approach her with an ultimatum. Get your **** together or get out. No, instead, she gets a sweet little location all to herself.....placed right in front of his office, just to keep her quiet and happy.
My only hope is that she keeps screwing up enough and he can actually see it now.
