There's nothing worse than a Stupidvisor who's incompetent. I've got an ignoramus woman who can't spell to save her life, yet she's our boss, cuz she kissed butt. It doesn't do any good complaining therefore to her boss, whose gnarly ass she kisses.
Best thing we've discovered, is don't cover for these people. If they screw it up, let them fix it. If they forget to do it, oh well. Don't babysit them and remind them. Can you afford to try this, since there may be patients involved? If so, he'll quickly fall on his face, and have to shape up or ship out.
We used to go in our bosses office and remind her about her telecons and deadlines. Now, we let her do her job (or not) and we do ours.
And you can't go postal because I'M the postal employee here, lol! Sounds like it won't drag on much longer, tho...
