Search Results: positive attitude at work

I work remotely so only interactions I’ve had with these people are through teams. I’ve been there almost a year, so far I haven’t had any negative interactions with the people on my team. Today after we all met my boss sends me message separately wanting to speak. She started it with saying that she doesn’t want to read into my body language during the meeting too much but it looked like I rolled my eyes & she wanted to know there’s something I’d want to discuss with her. I told her no & had to ask if this was the first time I gave this impression. She said no it’s happened enough for her to want to bring it up today. I told her it’s been a few stressful weeks & it’s all fatigue, if I did it’s nothing against her. But if she’s been saying I’ve been doing this for a while then I have no excuse to back that up. I have two monitors, one on top of desk & other at eye level so I had to bring that up, she said she didn’t want to bring it up at our 1:1. I told her that I’m pretty responsive communication wise & didn’t think overall I came across that way, I said that to imply that I have no issue communicating with her. I’ve been pretty open with her, she said her bringing this up had nothing to do with my work ethic this is all regarding “attitude”. With all the communication we’ve had in the past, she’s said positive things for the most part & this is the first time I really felt tense talking to her. She honestly seemed kind of upset, tomorrow is our 1:1 for the month & I’m kinda nervous.

Well, I’m in such shock and can’t believe what happened. I’ve been at what was my current job for 4 months in career services at a college. You all have seen my posts, today is the straw that broke the camels back. I really felt like I was trying my best and my boss was pretty positive towards the quality of my work, I have felt micromanaged at times tho (lot of pressure due to meeting placement rate). She said I was one of the stronger people in the office but she’s been up my ass so what is it?

Today during a call she told me to do something and I clapped back saying I DID in fact do it, she’s ready to give orders and assume I didn’t do it. She replies to an email saying that we should do something different instead, all of these new things that are coming out of the woodworks. I was actually about to leave the building and not come back right b4 we had a big meeting to discuss graduation tomorrow.

I talked to my dad and he said just say you were at the bathroom. I was 10 min late, a coworker came looking for me with an attitude and my boss was yelling at me in front of the other people in the meeting saying that she wants to talk to me after. They proceeded like nothing happened, someone asks me a question and I turn to my boss saying “this is the way I’m being treated for the ONE time that I’m actually late to something”. And she said that was beyond the point, to not talk about it now. I said I’m not dealing with this, dropped my notes on the table and walked out. Left my desk keys on my desk and drove off.

Mind you, this was at 5 PM. I haven’t gotten any calls or emails. I am really shocked that I got such cunty behavior, when I have not seen this side of leadership. The ONE time I’m late?

Would you all have done the same?
