Two coworkers are talking about their boss ...
Worker 1: I am just so angry.
Worker 2: Why is that?
Worker 1: You know that I have been working on a big project for weeks now ...
Worker 2: Yes. And?
Worker 1: I have been keeping the boss informed for every part of the project. When I finally finished the project and showed it to her, she rejected half of it and told me to redo those parts. Why couldn't she have told me when I talked to her about each step before I went ahead and did all that work?
Worker 2: You must be very upset.
Worker 1: I feel like I'm going to hit the roof!
