After a week's leave away, I got back to work this morning. Though I would've preferred to have gone straight to the kitchen 1 I decided otherwise and clocked in at the Headquarters. That was with the hope of getting along with my own work that I had to be catching up at one week's leave. Though I managed to sort out a few emails to chase up responses from other people, most part of the morning I spent time to chase for the process of some of the work related tasks that have been assigned to some of my people before I went on leave. It was quite unfortunate that either assigned tasks weren't completed at all or incomplete. A fair amount of time was spent trying to explain the importance of applying structured method of completion of tasks in question.
Then later in the morning, had to deal with those emails, people just keep sending with whole lots of other people in copy to impress. Then there were people who conveniently trying to pass the buck to me, just because their incompetence.
It could've been a better 1st day at work !
I haven't been able to spend a complete work day there for about three weeks
