My colleague D returned to work today. Not sure what that means in terms of working at the office. We are both working from home two days a week so will only see each other once a week. Actually glad the agency worker is gone. The handover she sent me was shit and the work she said she had done, she hadn't.
So I hadn't heard from D in 1.5 months. I just figured he was busy or didn't want to talk but he said he has called the office a few times asking for me but the agency worker always picked up. It must have been on the days I was working from home as I always answer the phone when I'm at the office. He told her it was a personal call and she wouldn't give my work mobile out or take a message. Wtf!! I even told her so many times thst she should give my number out. Useless. I don't think D likes her. He said she was quite rude lol. She seemed highly capable so I actually think she did it maliciously. Like she never took messages for me. Wonder if I'll ever see her again.
I have actually missed D but didn't say that haha. I told him I'll see you next Monday and he pretended to cry lol. I wish the circumstances were different but this is where it's at. At least we are secure in our jobs for now.
So I had a telephone meeting with the regional manager booked to discuss a complaint and after feeling anxious about it all, it was for nothing. The RM spoke to my manager and the agency worker and gathered enough information that he didn't need to speak to me. 🤷🏻♀️
