'Does not play well with others'

Yesterday, I lost it. I ranted and yelled and almost stamped my foot. All at work. I just get so frustrated sometimes.

This is our stupidly busy time of year. It shouldn't be really. I work in retail, in the marketing department for a large chain of businesses. They're not franchises so we can't just pass down an order and have it followed. Each person who runs the business owns a significant share and therefore all decisions need to be agreed upon by both the Head Office and the business owner. This, as you can imagine, takes some diplomacy.

I have none.

Not when we have been starting preliminary budget work in January, and the damn things are due today at lunch, and the idiots next door can't decide on how many pages should go in a catalogue! Honestly, it's not that hard, is it?

So, I've decided that right next to my name plate on my desk, I need those signs that you see on people's gates. The ones when they have unruly pets or children even. Cos right now, I don't play nicely with anyone!
