Constantly. I get a new boss every 6 months - 3 years.

In my "Salt" threads, I detailed a business partner in another department who was a bully and everything he wanted was an emergency (even if he sat on it for six months). On average, it would take each new boss about a year to catch on that everything was an emergency because we were not informed by him of his needs in a timely manner. They flat out wouldn't believe me when I told it to them up front, and I would be told to "go ahead and do it this time" for the first 2-3 "emergencies". This guy basically counted on me getting a new boss periodically so that he was never really held accountable for his lack of planning.
