Ran some CAT-5 cables to various parts of the R&D lab today.
Uneventful, but kept me busy.
Got an email to turn in my apprentice hours, despite doing it at least twice since December/November, and got another asking me (still cant get clarification how I am responsible for the actions of another adult) to turn in the Precious Apprentice Evaluations.
I've decided I won't email him back, seeing as when he'd asked me FIVE different times in emails if I had my 2011 NEC codebook already (each time I'd replied "YES"), he doesnt remember me showing him I had an electronic version as well - the 5th time, he sends a crummy insecure Outlook voting form asking if I had a codebook. But, I am the one with the communication problem he says. I passively said I'd told him I had one already, but was emailing him the written non-voting message because I check my email with my browser, Outlook is insecure and I dont want to download all my messages by using it...and therefore cannot see these voting buttons.
I was blasted with a ridiculous email about how I am "hacking" company property by not using Outlook.
This is the same guy that tried unsuccessfully to send me an attachment a dozen times, sent an empty outlook template every time, blamed it on me. I'm the "hacker".
We'd needed these fiberglass "fish sticks" to help us run the CAT-5 cables; he had taken them home, was asked TWO WEEKS AGO to return them. "Oh, they're still in my garage". We needed them, and didn't have them. They are company property. Did he get a Gate Pass? Probably not. What if I had done this?
Bet you I'd have gotten an ass-reaming for it, as well as another "communication skills" lecture.
So many things to show an attorney (or just my boss) if this gets bad. Not much time left until it won't matter any more. Do I continue to do nothing, and wait it out? It hasn't worked so far...but when you have a tiny Union with a "good ol boys" network, there isnt much you can do.
