I really am not a fan of those people who delight in playing games. Office politics and power trips just piss me off.

Are you speaking for yourself or as the rules of this forum ?

 

[AUFred]

I work from home but the games at my customer's offices effect me.

 

[AUFred]

Office politics being who is connected to whom outside the workplace. The connections behind the scene that affect the day to day operations.

 

[hart]

Well Fred you would not do well in a government job son.

 

[griz bear]

So what are the games being played ?

 

[AUFred]

Mostly just a power play today.

 

[griz bear]

They want more attention, more pay, figure they deserve it ?

 

[AUFred]

just playing games with my billings.

 

[griz bear]

are they your employees ?

 

[AUFred]

No. I am their vendor technically.

 

[griz bear]

so, it's put up with the games or start your own. Start looking for a new service provider. That might rattle some cages
