June 29Jun 29 Author Admin comment_1926 So the boss had to take charge and decided to make all the arrangements and pay for the trip and get reimbursed on his own usually its make your own arrangements...The main boss told me if the meeting is wed fly down tuesday do meeting wed then fly back thursday...My boss changed everything and really messed shit up because he is a control freak and micro manager...The meeting was thursday so he booked us a flight down Wed with a 48 minute layover in Atlanta... then on from there to Baton Rouge...as we are mid flight after having to damn near sprint across two concourses in ATL....We are mid flight headed into Baton Rouge when the pilot comes on air and states we are being diverted to New orleans...We ended up having to rent the car there and were down graded because all large SUVs were already leased... then drive the final 1:15 minutes to Baton rouge...The problem I had with all of this is My kids live in New Orleans and were only ten minutes away... I could have had my kids pick us up and drive us up to Baton Rouge...But Boss didnt want to do that... Plus he had to drive...Thursday we do the meeting and he also booked the return flight back at 7:30 pm we started the meeting at 10 am... I asked why did you book us back late that night we wont even make it to the RV park until at least 1:30 am... Why didnt you follow our bosses suggestions...On july 8th Ill have been on the project 4 months and we have yet to strike an arc for welding...We have no welders even on site... all they have been doing is dirt work in prep...When we landed in Atlanta the next plane was boarding in 8 minutes after we cleared the gate...He remarked next time Ill do better with arrangements, I said Nope you had your chance we ended us sitting in the car for five hours waiting after the meeting to go to the airport with no where to go because of his scheduling...I was jammed in-between two people him and he probably weighs in at 26 ish at 6'2 and the old lady and him had both arm rest so I sat with arms crossed the entire trips on return flights I had window and he was isle and he threw fit and ran to the ticket window to change his seating... I told the ticket lady I said Ya know I was squished in the middle on the way here...he was fine with that but now he wants to move mountains when its his turn... and I looked at him...I told him I understand he had way too much stuff going on but that next time I would book things or I would take care of my own and not worry about trying to travel together... I said never again...Worst trip of my life and I have flown a lot ...Thats about all I have on that subject other than to add the peacher who jumped and beat the shit out of the guy that said he was going to rape his wife and grandkids then kill them so the preacher beat the punks ass after taunting him and asking what he was going to do... well that was two blocks away from the airport in Baton Rouge...lol Here I go Again...
