Come in to work today and the first thing I'm asked by my micro-managing boss is to create a sort of guide on product assembly and a supplier list filled with our part numbers, who we order from, prices, lead times, etc.
Seems like a great idea for the relatively small company I work for. It's a bit unorthodox here and not exactly structured so the more we can do to log processes would help greatly in case someone is out or if we get a new hire.
Problem is... I created those sheets not 2 months after I started and not one person ever looked at them. So now my boss is most likely under the impression she's had this grand idea about how to improve and even though I did show her once again what I created, her next bright idea is to add "pictures". That way she can't be 100% wrong.
That's what happens when you promote someone with no management experience to be an office manager
