First, I'm in the process of job hunting so I can get away from this place, but until then I am stuck here.
My company recently hired an asshole manager who constantly micromanages and bullies the team.
He's supposed to approve our pull requests, but he doesn't know how to access the project and I think only me and the other team members know. We asked if he needed help in the beginning and he said no, so we've just been watching him come up with a million reasons for why he doesn't have access to the latest project for the last few months.
So when we have to show him something, he'll insist on gaining remote access to our PC via Zoom to check instead of pulling the newest version on his own computer. My turn is coming up tomorrow, and I really don't want him to.
First of all, it's my personal PC. It feels invasive.
Second, call me petty but I don't want to help this asshole save face. I already wrote in the company slack telling him I strongly recommend he checks my work on his own PC because it's quite heavy.
Can I give a legitimate reason as to why I won't allow him to do that, and to instead tell him to update the project and share his screen?
