Period.
Don’t ask me ill-posed questions as to why I didn’t do something or why I didn’t do something a certain way— then when I explain whatever you wanted to hear, proceed to cut me down about it no matter what answer I give to you and ultimately attempt to make me look horrible for your own satisfaction.
I don’t know why, but this is absolutely my biggest pet peeve. If you have to ask “why” when it relates to my job duties you probably have the answer right fucking in front of you. I know what my job is and not everything happens orderly to what’s within a manager’s head. No need to tank emotions. Fuck your why.
Instead of asking a rhetorical question posed to cut people down, be a manager and let the employees know what you need to prioritize first instead of cutting people down for not reading your mind. Fuck your why’s. Your why bank has run out of spendable why’s.
