How can I reject unwanted HELP?

Last two weeks, my company has gone through many layoffs which caused only 2 people left in my team - my boss and I. Worst part is, my boss has schedueled 4 weeks vacation before the layoff. Now I am the only person who is working on all the projects. Someone from west coast was brought in to help me go through this difficult time. Yes, he is trying to help - not helping with the parts I need the most, he kept requesting me to send him my coding which I did mulitple times (he never read emails) even converted some code he was not able to read (he does not know the language) into plain text. 

Then he totally ignored my real need for help, kept asking me to explain why we need do business certain way, questioning business owners why they made the strategy the way it is and the validity, questioning my efficiency with mulitple coding languages which he obviously does not understand. 

He kept telling me to stop doing what we've been doing.

I had enough of this kind of help and had to talk to the project manager who is managing all the projetcs for us. I shared my frustration and expressed the concern of the high risk his behavior brought in to our projects. 

He got extremely mad and not just hung me up in the meeting when I told him what's our priorities are, also he emailed the whole group that IT IS A NEED to go over thousands lines of my coding now. 

We tried to tell him under current scenario, changing process or revisit the programs which have been proved successful is not the top priority, we need get all projects on plate delivered on time with good quality then go back to see what we can do to improve later when we have time. 

He refused to listen. What should I do? I will ignore him but it did not work. I wrote emails about what priorities we have and what needs to be done, he ignored. During daily meetings, we talked about priorities, he ignored. I appreciate all his good intention, but really need him to leave me alone so I can complete what needs to be done. 

How can I make him stop? Should I talk to higher up? His behavior is jeopardizing my productivity and put projects on high risk.  Sorry my Chinese version does not work.

不知為什麽說NO怎麽如此困難。禮貌再輕鬆地帶著微笑類似歉意似的說出真實的理由,難嗎?自己在那裏糾結任情緒壓抑,別人會覺得很奇怪。 -世上事本無- 給 世上事本無 發送悄悄話 (328 bytes) () 06/19/2019 postreply 19:34:13

在公司重組時休四周的假,你肯定你老板不是找工作去了?如果你老板不是和上麵有關係,他是下一個走的人,你有沒有可能取代他? -廢話多多- 給 廢話多多 發送悄悄話 廢話多多 的博客首頁 (1257 bytes) () 06/20/2019 postreply 02:01:54

我感覺是他是被派來指導和監督你的,不管你願不願意。弄清楚你和他的工作關係後再下結論。如果你是被領導的,即使再不合理也有你的錯。 -世上事本無- 給 世上事本無 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 06/21/2019 postreply 13:54:52

如果老板走之前,沒有對你交代過你是他走後的聯係人(email上的auto reply),那就建議你要服從領導,有的任命不都是官方 -世上事本無- 給 世上事本無 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 06/21/2019 postreply 14:55:55
