So, because of the car accident, I've missed a fair amount of work. (The pay is all being covered by insurance, thankfully) But believe me, the work has PILED up while I was gone. I have a 6 page report that has a list of things I need to order in order to keep us ahead of the game. This list is compiled by my assistant, who actually works on the floor doing inventory control and inputting his numbers into the computer daily. He's not always that busy, so when he's not doing that, he goes through and updates vendor part #'s, costs, and reorder points (which go onto my report and how I know when to order what I need to). I brought this report home today after work so I could keep working on it, since I'm so behind. While I'm looking at this report, I notice that over HALF of the entries are completely incorrect. Like, the part # says it's cable, but the Vendor part # says it's a hula hoop. well, not really a hula hoop, but something just as completely different...though I guess you could make a hula hoop out of cable...but I digress.) I'm practically gaping at this report and trying to figure out how it could have been so MASSIVELY screwed up. This could have cost us literally 100's of thousands of dollars if I didn't just catch this. UGH. I'm extremely frustrated. I need to have a stern talking to with my assistant, and implore my boss to give me another few days to get this all back on track. (He's MY assistant, so he's MY responsibility)
Uuuugh.
*cry*
