I’d like to think I’m fairly easy going and forgiving with other people, but this is just ridiculous. I messaged my supervisor five days ago, and was met with complete radio silence until yesterday. He kept his Slack notifications paused for five days, while I’ve just been sitting here with my thumb up my ass unable to do any work.
And even when he got back to me he completely misunderstood my original message, so now I have to wait for however long it will take him to respond again until I’m able to continue working. Every day that slips by is another day that I’m missing out on making money, so I can’t even enjoy these “free days”, which is how my coworkers suggest I view this past week.
God I’m just so frustrated. Can’t speak up because I’m a woman in a man’s workplace and I would be considered “out of line”, can’t stay silent because again I literally cannot work and make money until my supervisor responds. I’m on the verge of just risking my job and calling him out.
