Obviously your new manager doesn`t know about prioritising! Anyway, I should think you will have him eating out of your hand soon! As they say on Ricki Lake - `You go girl!` (:o)

YOU don't need to worry about your career because your manager will be so concentrated on enhancing it

Hee hee, Macbeth. ;-)

More like enhancing his own and to hell with anyone else. He's since been despatched on his merry way to discuss the issue with my former manager(now his manager). I'm cleaning nonessential files off my computer and perusing job sites. :-)

So you'll be quite busy then Ciara? (-;

Your manager sounds as if he will go far (but possibly not far enough in your opinion).

The phrase "Management In Action" has always intrigued me. I mean, is it 3 words as written here or just the 2? ...

I had great glee when I worked at Reyrolles and and my manager was sacked and replaced by a fat accountant who revamped the job (in his eyes) and called himself MIS Manager

Ciara,

You're in Boston right? What's your tech background? Education? Mail me direct if you don't want to reveal to all and sundry. I know one or two people in Boston.
