This year, I used up my holidays with a fabulous trip to Thailand with my fiance in November, was one of the best trips of my life, and we are going back again this year!
How ever, due to this lack of paid leave, I worked through the Holidays, which would normally be fine, not much to do, sit around, read a few books. But the small amount of service calls that came through, and due to the lack of things to do, the head tech decided he would accompany me on a few.
Woo.
Now I don't have an issue with him, he is a good guy and an excellent tech, though me may be a bit old fashioned, and more than a bit rusty when it comes to any of the IT side of things, but hey, we are not all perfect.
But these last few calls he came with along to, it was horrid, hanging over my shoulder, trying to tell me things, messing up the general order in which I like to do my calls. I have a pattern, kind of like a formula, that I didn't even know I practiced until now.
He says its good to check up on the techs work, but what if hes mere presence makes me mess up? Its really hard to concentrate when you are trying to do things your way, whilst the person behind you scolds you for not doing it their way..
Any one else had similar experiences when they where a young tech? Not exactly super experienced, but I know what I am doing, and don't believe I need monitoring, and my service call record should validate that..
Just venting
