I agree
I've always been the type of employee that requires very little supervision, that's when I work my best is when folks just leave me alone to my work.
I have no problem working with others, as long as I'm not constantly *micromanaged* on a project.
Like The Admiral hinted to ...its extremely annoying when someone bugs you for a status update every 30 minutes, or when they physically walk into your office/cubicle area every hour to check on you like you are some damn kid or something.
I feel like saying "Gee, you must be so busy if you have all this time to keep asking the same questions over and over and to be constantly coming over here.".
I don't mind a manager asking for a status check twice a day -- say in the morning to set the tone of what needs to be done that day and then late afternoon just before going home. I'm fine with that. Anymore is just someone who is clueless on how to manage a team productively.
