Literally all the description I was able to get from her. Eventually, through extensive cross examination, I was able to determine that she was referring to me closing out action items on her list.
Which is a list of things she is supposed to do, and close out when she is done.
Which means I am not supposed to be the one closing them.
30 minutes of my time, lost forever.

There is a reason people should retire... if for no other reason than to make work easier for their co-workers...
I get why people work longer, they are still in debt on their houses that they refi'd 10 times, paid for their children to go to college and get basketweaving degrees and didn't understand that they needed to save for retirement and have no money at all....
But.... there comes a time when the brain no longer understands complex tasks and most companies no longer have the luxury of waiting 3 or 4 days while the mentally challenged figure out what's required....
