My senior manager had a meltdown because our printer at our office really sucks and has been having issues that nobody in charge has addressed in months.
She basically had a freakout over it, basically smacking the printer, and it made me super uncomfortable. I understand her frustration, she's been overwhelmed with too many deadlines and she's a mom (not single). But the way she reacted just triggered some childhood deep trauma with my own mother who would get violent whenever she got mad over an inconvenience.
I'm not going to report her to HR, because I sympathize with her frustration, but I'm afraid that she's just going to lose it and I'm just an easy target at this point at my job. I'm a junior that's been working 6 months there and currently undergoing a PIP.
I'm already making an effort to prepare my own escape, by updating my resume, applying and talking to connections.
