how to handle ...

A micro-manager. Seriously, it's like talking to a brick wall. You're reduced in being nothing more than a secretary, typing in dictaded words. Every initiative or even questioning the logic to be followed is met with a crossfire of useless arguments and buzz words that don't make sense. And when you try to openly challenge and/or constructively solve the situation it's like opening Pandora's box. Even worse is that escalating the situation higher up is met with a "don't care, don't want to know" attitude. :doh: any good advice on this is appreciated :)

"Consider it done" is the reply to use. There is no compromise on you, leaves all to the imagination of the micromanager... you never said when or how but still sounds like a goal has been set. He/she can imagine a lot or little, doesn't matter. Most likely when the time would have come up to assess the progress on that given task, something else will be priority. Hey, consider that done too! :cool: -- RP
