I already have thoughts of quitting my new job 2 weeks in, HELP?

[Anonymous]

I've only been on the job 2 weeks w/a non profit it's good pay with perks... but I can't stand my Manager and another person started with me and she has treated far better.. I'm baffled because the coworker has been late 2 X is loud, dramatic and annoying. My manager has had a rude tone with me, like when I mentioned I wanted to merge my work calendar and personal because I have gym classes, Manger gave this disgusted look was in disapproval while the new employee laughed. She's had a rude tone with me since day 1. This is all women non profit and mostly are black women, boas is white I'm white. I already have anxiety and the new coworker is fitting in fine. Thoughts?

Aw man, that sucks you're already having issues so early on at the new gig. Dealing with a rude boss would make anyone stressed, especially with anxiety. A couple weeks just isn't long enough to know if it'll get better or not.

I'd say maybe give it a little more time before completely bailing. Two weeks is nothing - you want to be sure it's really that bad and not just first impressions, you know? Maybe talk to some other coworkers and see what they think of your manager. Get a feel for if it's just you, or if others have noticed the rude behavior too.

In the mean time, focus on doing your work well and getting through each day. Don't give your manager a reason to get on your case. And try to stay away from the drama coworker as much as you can - don't want to get pulled into that mess.

If it's still terrible in a month, then I'd start looking elsewhere. At least then you wouldn't feel like you quit too fast. And you'll have a bit more money saved up while job searching. Stick it out if you can, but your mental health comes first man. Hope it gets better! Let me know if you need help updating the resume.

Co worker may quit in 2 weeks.

Boss may be replaced

Or you could ask Boss what is the deal

Don’t make this a race thing, you could have just as hard of a time adjusting elsewhere, whether the coworkers are black and you’re white or not. Anyway, that’s all I chop this up to: a difficult adjustment. You’re new… like super new, you haven’t built these friendships that they have, you don’t even know these women so at least let there be time to learn their personalities or get a feel for how things operate.

Wrong, its my rude Manger not s race thing. I rather like and enjoy everyone else.

So why mention their races and also the fact you and your manager were white? It adds no value to your story, not a key point or anything like that. Anyway if your manager is what’s bothering you, again, you don’t know her or anyone that well, it’s only been a handful of days. At least give it a chance before passing judgment. I get that your coworker is new and having an easier time but maybe she’s more social than you. Personally I don’t care about making friends or being super cool with work cliques, I go to do my job then use the money to live my real life with genuine people, that’s how you should see it too.
