Hell hath no fury of a woman...
|
Hell hath no fury of a woman... You know how it goes. I tend to be a pretty easy going person until I am provoked to be otherwise. Currently my<b> fury </font></b>is on my employer. I gave notice in November. Originally I told him March I would be leaving. He sat on it and didn't get someone hired till mid March. I then agreed to be there till April 3rd. He panicked so I agreed to stay until the 15th. He has continued to drag his feet. My replacement is doing very well. I feel confident that she will be able to handle the job. So why the fury? He has a software system for the clinic that is crap. Always has been crap. I encouraged him four years ago to switch software. He is losing money daily with this software. He had me demo other software for a few months. Then he decided it was going to be too much to change! I have dealt with it for all this time. Now with the new person she is pointing out all the problems with the software. Until she masters it he will once again be losing all sorts of money. On top of that the software company was supposed to do an update conversion at the end of January but was not ready for. Now they want to do the conversion next week. Boss man wants me to stay until the conversion is done so that it is smooth. Normally I would have no problem but I also happen to be losing out on jobs in Alaska because of the time frame. I am not being compensated any differently from my employer. Why am I bending over backwards?? |

I know it would be a bit of a burden, but how much documentation have you compiled about your job and the system? How much of a reference guide is available to your replacement and boss? I work in IT, and for me its all about the documentation. Your boss sounds like the kind of person who fears change. He's set in his ways, and thinks if he ignores it, nothing will happen. Either that or he just doesn't get why his system doesn't meet his needs. A lot of people aren't software to business savvy. Or he's too busy to deal with the details of his business. Come to think of it, isn't this the reason most small businesses fail? Lack of management of their cash flow. Bad software doesn't help, but his lack of involvement doesn't help. As to why you are bending over backwards and accommodating him. You've worked for him for over 4 years, so you have a bit of a relationship with him. You probably are the type of person who wants to see someone succeed, and do not want to feel like you dropped the ball and allowed him to fail because of his own stupidity. Therefore you are willing to go out of your way to help support him. You can't fix stupid...

Other people's inability (or unwillingness) to plan ahead should not limit yours. Once you have done the right thing (several times...), your obligations are fulfilled. Besides, I think you are bending over for the wrong person....

Well he definitely knows he can lean on you to get what he wants. I understand the need for a good recommendation for when you come up here but I think everyone would agree he is being totally unreasonable. Have you received a written recommendation from the guy? Now would be the time because the reality is YOU have the power. Not him. Time to use it to get what you need from him before you give him what he needs. Just my two cents.. Rick
