Antiwork

Told my boss that my replacement would have the same struggles as me.

My boss came up to me about an oversight on my part. I did not research and correct an issue that was left over from yesterdays shift and he was extremely angry with me and mentioned it could've led to a write up or termination We're extremely understaffed and we've only been operating for a month on a completely new system that no-one is 100% perfect on I was the only manager on the floor for the entire day and I had to organize and direct work for 3 different departments I wasn't in the department that the work was left over in and wasn't given a whole lot of information to work off of No-one gave me any direction in the mornings meeting on what to do with the work. It wasn't even mentioned I have 15 different people constantly asking me questions that I have to do research…

  1. We're extremely understaffed and we've only been operating for a month on a completely new system that no-one is 100% perfect on
  2. I was the only manager on the floor for the entire day and I had to organize and direct work for 3 different departments
  3. I wasn't in the department that the work was left over in and wasn't given a whole lot of information to work off of
  4. No-one gave me any direction in the mornings meeting on what to do with the work. It wasn't even mentioned
  5. I have 15 different people constantly asking me questions that I have to do research on throughout the day

His rebuttal to all of this was it was a “light day”. I told him that this is a team environment and I am being spread thin and i asked him, why didn't you call this out earlier if you knew about this issue? He then turned the question back onto me on why I didn't see it. I also said, “you all can fire me, but my replacement is going to have these same struggles”

Am I wrong or is this place not a good fit? My gut is telling me yes. I've only been here 3 months and we've only been working for one month on site
