I’ve been at my current job for almost two years and it’s always been bad, but it recently has gone from bad to worse.
My boss is the type to choose a favorite and least favorite each week. I’ve definitely had my fair share of being the least favorite, and luckily have been the favorite many times. My boss is also the type to take things EXTREMELY personal. She very often claims that she’s afraid to “look bad.”
Last week, I sent out an email that didn’t live up to her standards. She went off on me on Friday, and finished the week off by asking “if I learned my lesson.” I spent the weekend trying to forget about it, and hoping she’d be picking someone else to be the least favorite this week. (Spoiler: it’s still me.) Today, she called me into her office and told me that my work was embarrassing, everything I do needs to be proofed before it leaves our department, and that one of my on-going projects is a waste of time.
I immediately called HR and prepared them for a 2 week notice coming soon.
TLDR; my boss said my work was embarrassing and a waste of time, now I’m putting in my two weeks.
