21F, hired about six months ago in case management. I was assigned a task by my manager, and I asked him what the purpose behind the task was. He got really angry, and stated that he would take care of it, even though I stated multiple times that I was willing to, but just wanted to know why. Last week, I found a verbal warning statement on the (public in our department, so easily seen by my coworkers and superiors) printer saying that I failed to complete the task. This document was dated and said it was cc’d to our agency director. I overheard them talking about it, and I’ve been waiting for the shoe to drop.
I’ve already decided to not sign the warning, under no circumstances, but the fact that my supervisor made this document and gave it to the director before coming to me and its been a week and I still haven’t received it. It seems like he might be doing it to make me look bad. I wrote up a rebuttal just in case, explaining my side of the story, but I’m scared and so anxious that I can’t get anything done. I can’t focus, I get awful anxiety attacks, and I’m so behind on work. Any advice?
