ah, the small melodramas that crop up amongst co-workers.
i attended the medical record meeting at a different facility today. the biggest issue on the floor was who determines where the meetings are held. the manager wanted the conference room - it's air conditioned, located on the first floor, and it was empty. the secretary, however, wanted to hold the meeting in the medical library on the third floor (so it was convenient for her) where there is no air conditioning, then refused to open the doors to the balcony so we could at least catch a breeze. oh, and the elevator is broken.
didn't matter to me. i'm on the committee, so it's my job to go wherever it's held - and it just seemed so trivial. i don't mean to be judgmental, but none of these people are overwhelmed with work and wouldn't you think that there would be more important issues to discuss than who has more authority?
i guess power struggles are for those who have time for 'em. my opinion - which nobody asked for and which i didn't give - is, that the manager should decide where and when, and the secretary should just show up. otherwise, i don't really care.
