A female colleague was copied into an email to me, and part of her duty is to record those emails and pass hardcopies of them to me.

The email basically said hello, please find attached, but no other information. There was however no attachment to the email which I could use, or information pertaining to the attachment.

The female colleague duly printed this off and passed it to me for me to work on. I was a little short with her, and questioned her common sense, asking what I could do with it? :biggrin:

Her answer, 'Well how was I to know?' :smile:B)

Later she routed a call to me, with no forethought as to whether it was for me, and the person on the other end of the line was a bit non-plussed as to why I answered (they had asked for another dept)

Perhaps a little more concentration, and less f*cebook, and she might get on a little better.

And breathe out.....ommmmmm

While I can understand your frustration, I would question why your colleague has been given such a mindless, and apparently unnecessary, job to do.

Maybe if she was given more stimulating work she wouldn't spend all her time on facebook.
 
This is what's called making a mistake, CP. Not worth upsetting someone over IMO. Maybe if you hadn't been 'a little short with her', you could have both laughed it off and the second mistake wouldn't have happened?
