No updates for the revised document as well

After so much of discussions between the delivery person and myself at the end of a tiring day, we took the bold decision of sending work in progress document to the on-site team for review. Post sharing the content, I was completely nervous about the feedback and wondering whether my storyline was in the right chord to address all client requested information. Anyhow, with no other options left, I logged off for the day and went back home. The next day with so much anxiety, I was curious to check my mail about the feedback and to my surprise, there was not even a single mail or acknowledgment from the on-site team. I was even more worried about the outcome because if the on-site team share their suggestions by today I would get enough time for making those changes or I would have hardly left with few hours to complete it, as I have a planned vacation coming up. I was even more confused about my next step, whether I should wait for one more day or drop a note to the on-site team, stating that I would be on vacation from the upcoming weekend and the earliest feedback would help us in addressing it sooner than later. I went home with so much of oscillation running back off my mind and the moment I entered my home, I got the splendid idea to close this service request.

One more day with my colleague’s work

After getting the document reviewed with my manager and insights he shared with me, I was hoping that document would be taken ownership by my colleagues and I can focus my bandwidth for the new opportunity assigned to me. However, the next day I got a call from my colleague that the document was reviewed by the on-site team and there are a lot more updates to be made and we need your support for one more day. I was completely furious by these comments and wanted to escalate this to my manager. So, I went ahead to my manager and was discussing about iterative changes, I already compiled most part of the document and from now on the new updates can be taken over by my colleagues and I needed to put my effort on new opportunity assigned, as it’s getting escalated to new levels by each passing day. To further increase my temper, my manager was persuading me to support my colleagues for one more day and he would speak with the new opportunity owner or drop a note to the on-site team about my bandwidth. My manager conveyed to me that he would drop a note to the entire team that my bandwidth is completely occupied and my support would not be available till the start of next week. But manager backstabbed me and was poorly managing things, to know more about what happened, check out blog posts in “G R Team Sites”

Unnecessary work on weekend

Message was conveyed clear to the delivery person, that I can support partially over weekend with no options available for me from my manager. To my surprise, I had personal work at home and couldn’t spend much time on the deck to be shared and with no option left, I have shared the slides whatever I could work with my available time. However, the delivery person has called upon my manager and has conveyed that additional updates to be made and some relevant information to be in place for leadership review. Now, my manager was checking on with me, when I can spend enough time on the slides and share revised version for review. I was completely furious, as I have conveyed earlier that I am partially available on weekend and additional information required from onsite to avoid redundant effort. But, this stupid delivery person and my manager was persisting me to work on some irrelevant slides, only to showcase to others that they have put in some effort for completion. To be frank, both these guys make things worse with stupid and irrelevant suggestions on the slides. To know more what happened, please feel free to check out “G R Team Sites”

Heated conversation my with manager

I was also referring to the earlier mail to my manager, which I dropped to that offshore delivery person and specifically marking out that the deck was based upon the topics suggested and can be customised further based on the suggestions from the onsite team. After all this drama on this opportunity without even starting to take off, I was completely irritated and wanted to back out from this opportunity and was citing about my upcoming vacation this week. My manager was still persistent that I would be able to support this opportunity, and nothing important would be required to delivery before next 2 weeks I can go ahead with my vacation plan. Trusting my managers suggestion, I took vacation for the week and was hopping that no major updates come on the way for this opportunity. Continue reading at “G R Team Sites”
