Default I have just been called autocratic

Background

My boss says I need to spend more time at our Rugby office in order to work with another guy on a development project. Travel down there takes about 5 hours a day out of my time So I send him a mail last night after I had returned home from Rugby.

You need to agree with me which days are convenient, before you make the arrangements.

The idea that you arrange things to suit yourself and then demand that I appear on these days isn't acceptable.

Question. Firstly given that the guy works down there is it wrong for me to book office accomadation to suit myself and ask that he makes himself available those days.

He copied his reply to my boss. He is already complaining that I don't spend enough time down there and when I attempt to, he moans.


I don't want to get into slanging matches, but the guy wasn't there when I had to book accomodation for next week before I left the office. Why does he keep running off telling sir.

I am in a no win, this is really p155ing me off.
