Well, not a lot really apart from a cock up here and there, but I think only on two occasions its been serious.

Always getting an ear bashing about something small.

Dunno just feel it in me water

Shame really cus I really like this job

To give you an example, give my line manager draft notes from a meeting, only done it a couple of times before so handed it over and said, "its a draft, but what do you think is it going in the right direction?"

Takes it to my boss and they nit pick the whole thing as if it was supposed to be a final version, they even have a meeting over it then I get a bollocking

or

Make up a contacts list of delegates for an event and, no typos, eveything spelt right so on and so forth, but everything gets picked on, they work for the same council, why is the dialing code different (even thou this is the information they gave us ) and my version gets picked to shit. My line managers one doesn't and its worse than mine for typos and mistakes

Just stuff like that. Was a post with an e-mail convo I had I'll dig it up.

tell the big boss that your line manager is a twat ffs. point out examples where you're being "picked on" and show him how you're being used as a scapegoat!

why not get everything you print draft wise, printed with a DRAFT water mark? that way they cant do much about it.
