Is Andy the definition of "Micromanager"

Seriously, I have worked for Pfizer for about 15 years and have had some really good managers and some really bad ones. I don't know that I have ever seen a business unit President who is as much of a micromanager as Andy in Oncology. Who else has been on a Xalkori "mission control" and had to listen to a bunch of HQ people go over what you are doing and offer you absolutely nothing worthwhile to help. Your doing a great job--sorry those ALK positive patients just don't seem to exist in your territory in the numbers we projected. My boss is never available--she's always either prepping for a mission control, submitting data for some kind of dashboard, or simply wondering what her next ridiculous requirement is going to be.
Can you just leave us the hell alone for a while and let us sell? Find something productive to do in NYC--go to the local margarita bar and get wasted! You're not helping with you hands on approach and all your doing is pissing us off. I got a call from BI today about their new sales force and have a phone interview next week. Yes--I'll talk to them--they can't be any worse that what we are putting up with now, and maybe I can get a raise.

Ride the hubby chubby. Dress up in Star Trek Mission Control space suit. Get a life.

yes I am familiar with "shmandy" and his tricks-he once told me that he was a beautiful orange bird and that at night when he closes his eyes and lays on his pillow-his feather spread and his orange wings take him soaring above celestial horses
