Bad Management
Tb2571989 says Bad Management isn't just a great name for a heavy metal band - what kind of rubbish work practices have you had to put up with?

I Can Empathise
I worked for a small IT consultancy and spent 6 weeks sitting on "the bench", i.e. being between billable clients, with 5 other colleagues.
We were expected to attend the office in central London from 9-5 and help out. This was one of those situations of not working too fast, otherwise we'll have to find something else for you to do.
The frustration was that I had a new house that needed decorating - management wouldn't agree to our being available until 10 am, we had to be present in case of going to see a client. Complete waste of time.
Eventually a new client came up, but it was a demoralising period.
