What the hell am I doing here?

I’ve been asking myself this question at least ten times a day for the past two months. Especially when any one of my THREE different bosses is stuck in a loop, detailing the steps of my next data entry task, over and over and over.

I swear to god, nowadays it feels like I live in “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown“.

Boss: “I’m going to need you to do another audit today of the Vancouver folders. We need to see if the ‘read’ access is set correctly for every user.”

Me: “Yeah, I did that yesterday. I was entering two new teams anyway, so I checked them all.”

Boss: “Right. But we need to make sure all the folders have ‘read’ access set.”

Me: “That’s what I did. I checked every folder. Yesterday morning. There were a couple blank and one or two with a wrong name, so I fixed them. It’s done.”

Boss: “Troy checked them a few days ago and said there were some with wrong names. I want you to check every single folder by going to the evaluation screen, right clicking here, and selecting “Share Folder”.”

Me: Sigh.

Boss: “I spot checked four of the teams last night and didn’t see any errors. Let me know when you’re available and mwah waa waaah wah wah waaaaa.”

The. Hell.
