Work, Grr

So I'm having an annoying day at work. A couple days ago, my boss handled something that I usually do, but only finished half of it, and then left the remaining part for me. But she didn't tell me this, and instead just put it on a checklist. I didn't see it till the next day, and then had to scrabble to get it fixed. So I mentioned this to her today, as sort of a "could you inform me if you do that again" thing, but instead, she tells me that I'll just have to check the list more often. *sigh* So now I have to check this list twice a day on the off chance that she puts something there.

Then this afternoon, we had a funny smell coming out of a drain pipe in the floor. The maintenance guy said it was sewer gases, but that pouring some water down the drain every once in a while would keep the gas trap in the drain working. So I emailed this to my boss, who apparently got very angry that the building wasn't going to fix it and emailed several people to express her displeasure, including the woman who acts as liaison to building maintenance. The liaison then came downstairs and scolded me for getting her in trouble, because I apparently misunderstood the maintenance guy (or rather the maintenance guy wasn't clear). So then I had to email my boss and retract what I had said. Grr.

UPDATE: This morning, a secretary asked me to find her a file, but provided me with only the client's name. I found the file and brought it to her. A little later, she said that there was supposed to be a second part, and asked that I find that, which I did. She then asked why I didn't find that one this morning. I explained that the two parts were in different places, and I didn't do a more thorough search until she asked. She then replied "Interesting. In the future, it probably would be best to check both places just in case. :)" Yeah, well maybe next time you could bother to tell me that I'm looking for two files! Or bother to give me more than just a name! Y'know, I don't need someone else telling me how to do my job.
