I don’t understand what it is about him, but when I see his name on the rota my entire day is ruined, and I begin to expect the worst.
I extremely dislike his attitude, and the tough guy front that he puts on. And yet this makes me terrified of him at the same time, because he has an extremely short temper. I’m finding myself walking around eggshells when I speak to him, because I don’t know what’s going to set him off that day.
He then starts with the shouting and banter in attempt to impress my colleagues and it always works, I’m always glad when it’s not at my expense.
He always makes it known when he’s having a bad day, or if he’s tired. He always threatens me and others how we don’t want to mess him about on a bad day as he will make our working lives hell— how is this acceptable?! And when I go to HR about him saying such things I’m told to lighten up.
I am always extremely out of my comfort zone with him, and sometimes it becomes completely overwhelming and I drive all the way home crying because he drains my social battery completely.
He makes my time off work hell as well.
I go home anxious when I spend time with friends, outside of work, and yet he makes it multiply by two. I’ve even considered quitting my job over this guy.
I can’t even relax in my own time anymore because I’m on edge all the time.
I’ve even spoken to other colleagues, and yet I’m being told that my feelings towards him, and my impression of his character are totally incorrect.
This post feels silly, and I don’t think it comes close to accurately describing my feelings. But nevermind.
