I hope everyone is doing okay.
Lately, it hasn’t failed for the supervisor to subtly assert herself toward me or feel uncomfortable around me. What is going on? I’m too busy to deal with her. She has tried to assert herself as the boss but doesn’t have her facts straight. She tried to “show me” in front of others she knows her stuff. It hasn’t worked out for her. I have tried to set a boundary with her, and she has failed to adhere to it. I walked into the room ready to go head-on with her about how she addresses me in her emails especially recently. She retracted once I showed her evidence of being correct and she must’ve asked someone for confirmation as well and was told she was wrong. I wasn’t going to hold back and turned cold just like her.
I am tired. I get it from every direction, and I also have investigator #2 being ugly and bothers me with her ugly emails that also don’t make any sense. Despite both situations I am resilient. I am ignoring both as of today and giving both the same cold shoulder that I am getting. The supervisor attempted to make me look incompetent the last couple days. Today she brought cupcakes to minimize the friction, but I don’t buy it. I don’t want any. She told me yesterday she gave me sufficient information to do a journal entry trying to show off in front of one investigator being included in the email. I responded to her on her error and that the journal entry you had to include the information previously discussed and added a snippet of the required entry and policy. She ended with retracting her statement, admitting to her mistake.
I don’t lie, I am trained and know policy well and won’t back down if I am confident about the information I am disseminating. She tried to embarrass me. I let it go and didn’t discuss anything further. She obviously not comfortable with me around. This is peanuts compared to what all else I have going on so onward. All the Best!
