The what?

Two weeks ago I received a message from Chair regarding the annual report. Please send us your conferences, publications, etc., etc. I sent everything to the Assistant on time.

The day after I met my French colleague and hir told me that I was supposed to send in all the activities of the section. Well, nobody told me anything about it and in any case I asked Assistant to let me know if what I did was fine.

Yesterday, after almost a week I wrote back to Assistant to ask hir if what I sent was ok and mentioned what French colleague told me. Assistant wrote back that indeed, I was supposed to send all the activities of the section too. Mmmmmhhhhhh, how am I supposed to do the job if nobody is telling what to do even when I ask?

These are the things that gets me pretty pissed off.
