It would seem that Emailita has not been through Managing People 101...not that this would be breaking news to anyone. I will not claim to know everything there is to know about directing your peeps, but let me just throw this out there:
If you assign someone a task, let them do it. It's like when you were growing up and your mom said, "Hey...can you butter these rolls while I finish up the green beans?" Then she snatched the knife from your hand and buttered them herself because her way of buttering rolls was the only way to butter rolls properly so how could you be expected to do it right?!
So I will sit at my desk now, twiddling my thumbs, because Emailita has snatched the knife away. Hey...maybe I could fill the glasses with ice!
