An
annoying series of seemingly unnecessary steps that causes a commotion and results in confusion, irritation and resentment by the
people who inevitably have to do all the extra
work to fix something they didn't break.
After all the rigamarole Sally caused by changing her tax status and then 10 other
people followed suit, we have to
re-enter all the timesheets which means payroll will be late! This has
never happened before, I'll have to call the bank and investigate our options, it'
s already after 4:30, somebody better still be there...this is going to wreck my date tonight, if I'm going to be that late, I might as well not go at all...Sally is SUCH a bitch!"
