    Or when they list who to contact in their absence. I contact the back up...the back up doesn't know how to do what I need. So I'm stuck waiting for the original person to return from vacation anyway...

    for me, it's a BIGGER pet peeve if the person is out of the office and don't set the message, so you're continually trying to get an answer from them and you have no idea that they're gone and won't respond for a while....

    Oh, see people ignore my emails anyway. lol

    Or worse, you get an out of office message from the back up. Who in turns says to contact the person that told you to contact them.

    When the senior I work with sets his out of office telling people to contact me in his absence and I get badgered ALL day by people who think I can help when I have no idea what they need me to do!!

    I'm sorry he's away, please dont be annoyed that something that takes him 30seconds takes me 3hours to figure out - I'm trying my best! And ringing me every 2 minutes to ask if I've figured it out yet does NOT help....I will ring YOU when it's sorted!
