What does “I don’t bite” coming from a supervisor mean?

Is it flirting)

Depends on how it was said. If he said, “I don’t bite, unless you ask me to.,” then yes I’d say he’s flirting. If he noticed you’re intimidated by him or scared to approach him he could have said that as a way to break the ice, to make you laugh as a gesture that it’s ok to approach me I’m not mean.

That depends on the context and how it was said. It generally means "don't be afraid"

Context. It could be either way depends on the situation.

A lot of people are intimidated by their supervisor so he's let you know it's unnecessary

Not flirting, just saying that he isn't mean.
