She talks to herself, talks to her sons (grown ups but she sounds like she's talking to a baby), talks talks talks. Then spends the day reviewing Entertainment Weekly.

oh gawd. I'm the sort who believes people will hang themselves in work, but this time karma has left me alone.
I gotcha beat. Our MANAGER does this.

Sorry, I work for lawyers. My empathy was lost years ago. And we have multiple supervisors, all lawyers. We all have lawyers we hate. But we do our job and get along and try to be respectful. However, this one is def. one that needs to be outed. Having her lawyer come to me for work is just pathetic. And then me having to explain that his work needs to go to her is pathetic. So yeah, I'm over it. But this forum helps me vent. And considering we are on 4 pages of others with the same problem, I don't think I'm the only one angry.

Hey Branson, funny thing. A very long time ago I worked for a mgr. who did that. I could not stand her and figured she'd be there forever. Little did I know. One morning I came in and she was leaving with a box of her personal items. One tiny case where management did something!!
