@Keith work through the weekend if necessary sounds bad, especially since you mentionned you have fixed hours? Maybe talk to HR about the workload.

| Jan 27, 2016 at 8:49 | comment | added | Philip Kendall | While we generally frown upon "just quit" as a recommendation around here, "lack of time is never an excuse for not getting work done, work through the weekend if necessary" means it's time to start looking for a new job. That's appalling management. | |
| Jan 27, 2016 at 0:14 | comment | added | Luaan | @Keith That's really just bullying on the part of your manager - a hostile working environment. Nobody can force you to work overtime, and if they plan wrong, it's their fault when the inevitable happens. But that doesn't really matter - by the point you get to the point where people actually disagree about who is at fault, it's a pretty good sign that this isn't a good work environment to be in. | |
| Jan 26, 2016 at 22:55 | comment | added | Keith | Thanks Philip, sound advice. I think they are managing the process poorly but I have weakened my position. Stuff not getting done is always the subordinates' fault, to quote: "Lack of time is never an excuse for not getting work done, work through the weekend if necessary." ... I sound so bitter. | |
