    I am a consultant stuck working for a Project manager from another Co.

    All this PM cars about is getting money and contracts - not doing a good job (spends the entire day on the phone, 2 hr lunches, etc) but appearing to

    I have to sit with this person and constantly interrupted and micromanaged - to produce their documentation - never mind the deliverable that the client requests.

    I am threatened continually ie, "why don't I quit" "I destroyed the career of the last person who did not follow my ORDERS 100%" , personally invaded by snarky comments and insinuations "why am I such a loser to be consulting" and sabotaged at every step.

    I am thinging of recording this dolt (who by the way does NO work except to push me all day) but see it as pointless.

    Any suggestions besides quitting?
