I posted here a while ago (83 days ago) about how I’ve just been tired of my job and wanting to quit. Well, something new happened. My manager has been, to put it simply, micromanaging the absolute crap out of us. Sending us 10 paragraph emails of things we need to do (things we already do), taking over our work when it doesn’t need to be taken over by her. Overall just being a nuisance and causing us to be stressed at our job when she’s around.
She’s constantly late, like hours late. Doesn’t properly train new hires, isn’t there to help us when multiple clients need help at once. It’s stressful.
There were a few things that happened last week that really just made me frustrated. I sent her a text Saturday afternoon while at work explaining how I’m not fond of her going behind my work personally. I also mentioned how some of the things she does can cause us and clients to be confused. I was very respectful and made sure to choose my words carefully. I even asked a coworker to read over my message before I sent it.
She sent me this essay long response. She took my message as me being disrespectful and insulting her, which that wasn’t what I was trying to do. I just wanted her to understand that some of the things she does is unnecessary and causes confusion.
Well, now she wants to “discuss” a few things with me. I’m honestly dreading it. Oh and another coworker told me Saturday that the manager told her the base pay for everyone is $14-14.50 an hour. I only get paid $13.50. I feel undervalued and underpaid for all the work I do.
I’m currently looking for a new job until I am able to quit. I’m exhausted, frustrated and angry.
