I felt the same way about my former micromanaging VP and Supervisor...If one wasn't there, I could get alot more accomplished; if they were both out, I could get TWICE as much work done! I looked forward to those few days like i look forward to a holiday! The supervisor had every other monday off, that was GREAT! but the VP was seldom out...she came to work with Bronchitis and just stayed in her office but she came...she would put every other Friday as her scheduled day off, but she was always there, or came in before noon...and scheduled vacations were never taken unless she was going out of town with her husband...that happened once during the year that I was there.

Talk about micromanaging control! they both drove me crazy....literally!
