i see the confusion here... she never asked me for the direction she thinks she did. in addition, all the items I laid out in painful detail were

the same items i told her to learn when she arrived. when i say "Learn the workings of the video bridge" i mean.. learn the video bridge - how to connect calls, schedule, etc. I should not have to list all the functions of a video bridge and tell her to learn those items specifically. Is this unreasonable?

beyond all of that, she was hired not to be a call administrator, but to analyze process and work on improving them and documenting. this is not a low-level day to day job. she has not taken the time to learn the basic functions that she's supposed to be analyzing and improving.

Responses:

she said she was asking for direction for weeks. was that not happening? i mean, if she's lying, then fine. - TFox May 4, 07:20 3
- i am not the kind of person to leave someone high and dry in a job. i hired her, i don't want someone i hired to fail. - colin May 4, 07:35 1
  - I hate piling on, but what you have to remember is that not every person "works" in the same way. Some people are great at running on their own. - Kim Pine May 4, 07:42
- She's probably lying, or at the very least scrambling to backpedal. -- nm - Beryllium May 4, 07:27
