fill in boss gave the same 1 person assignment to 3 of us 10 minutes apart. It is about 2 hours of work and I think it's all we are being given. What should I do?

 
Do it fast, do it well. Nobody does that #### accidentally, even on a Monday. Whomever does the worst job is going to get canned. Stop posting here and get to work!

 
By "fill in" do you mean he/she is there for just today or is this a longer term thing? Where did they come from (different dept, off the street, etc)?

What type of job are we talking about?

 
White collar civil service job, will not be fired. She's from a different department and seems not to care how much gets done today. None of us have started yet.

 
How ####ty of a job must one have that if the boss misses a day the employee needs a substitute boss to tell them what needs to be done?

I don't mind it, actually. Im trying to figure out how to get out of doing a 2 hour job in 8 hours so I'm not a real go getter

i used to be like that. Now i have a job where im busy all day. Cant browse the internet more than a few minutes a day. I go home exhausted and mentally drained. And you know what? I wouldnt have it any other way. My days fly by. My nights are relaxing. I feel every day that i accomplished something and not that i wasted my day or talents. Im so much happier now.

Work for 2 hours & prank the sub boss for 6.

Try telling them different names, or sitting in different cubicles.

Yep, really sounds like a substitute teacher situation. She probably doesn't want to be there either. Is she hot? Can size?

It sounds like he works for the gubmint. 3 people doing a job meant for 1, "substitute" boss" definitely sounds like the government.

Sounds good. Get to work already
 
I would think outside the box and try to shift the paradigm. Make sure you use best practices, then circle back to run the idea up the flagpole.

You're re-inventing the wheel here; just ping your new acting boss with an email and kick that project into the long grass. The last thing you want to do is park that project.

You may want to gather the other three for an idea shower - it's the blue-sky thinking that keeps you singing from the same hymn-sheet. Just make sure you are a strategic fit for the customer centric focus.

Good luck.

I think you are doing it wrong. My buddy does this and all he does is run models and simulations that take 12+ hours to complete. He starts his program and then we go drink.

 
Is there any room in this conversation for "optics?" Optics might be the answer.

Or the OP could make up stories about his wife whoring around on him. I'm a little busy today but I could make time to read something like that.

 
I gave him a task and he #####ed about it on a message board while considering schemes to not do the job. This guy has senior management written all over him and should be promoted immediately.

:tapsfoot:

Unpossible. Thandie is hot. Sandra is an annoying, disgusting troll. Any mix of the two would surely destroy the space time continuum

It's all ball bearings these days.
