   * Time management.   whenever something gets dropped or missed he makes another 'policy' and retroactively implements it so that it is our fault that the thing didn't happen.   Door opening schedule,  elevator,  office assignments, grade submission
   * Ignoring collective agreement.  sessional postings,  course evaluation data,  DOE changes,   When mentioned to him he laughed and said that he interpreted the collective agreement differently than I did.
+  * Not letting us do our jobs.  Curriculum chair and committee routinely lied to and overruled-  new majors debacle,   I am associate director and am supposed to be acting director when he is gone (its on my job description).  He asks other people (who are traditionally not active in the unit and likely won't 'do' anything).
+  * Unpredictable responses.  He asked me for a list of priorities.. I gave him a list along with justification.  the result was spectacular
+//I know the past semester has taken its toll on you and you have been pretty overwhelmed and discouraged by things, but when I requested a list of outstanding items I was hoping to get some constructive input to form a basis for addressing issues affecting the School, as I try my best to try to resolve numerous challenges some of which are visible, while others are not, while the School has been, and continues to be understaffed.
+I am disappointed that your list seems to be founded and written on the basic assumptions that you think I am incompetent and uncaring.  I too have felt overwhelmed and discouraged by the past term.
+Your negative attitude to the work that I have done makes it very difficult to engage with you in a productive fashion on the issues you raised.  As a result, I don’t think there is much point in further discussion until we’ve both had time to move beyond our current frustrations.  I will, of course, continue to do my best working as director, addressing issues that are backlogged, new issues as they arise, and anticipating upcoming opportunities as well.//
