My boss is one of my closest friends. After my husband died, she gave me a job and said I could take as many clients as I wanted, either hairdressing, beauty therapy or massage. It got me out of the house and stopped me moping around and I'm so grateful for her.
My boss is very good to me but I think he wants more than a professional relationship. For that reason I try to avoid him - especially one on one meetings.
The recent one? I used to love her and still tried to forgive her. Now I feel indifferent. She doesn't take accountability, blame everything to me, and worst of all, she made me feel no value.
Neither, I respect her for filling out her role, but at the same time will agree to disagree on certain topics as the union rep. We co-work for the most.
I always say my current boss is the best boss I ever had. He's given me opportunities to climb up the ladder in which I did succeed. He told me he saw a lot of potential for me in the role. But I concurrently haven't seen a raise in four years, especially for my primary role. I sadly also don't see him doing that anytime soon as he's currently on shaky ground. So, I'm trying to make my own way and leave him.
@DDonde that how I feel... Like he only sees things out of his own eyes...
I work in a huge business...
And like information is NOT coming down to us, which we're told that's because there is no information to give us, but then I learn about important information that directly effects me, from other people and their managers...
And my manager was in that exact same meeting... and I got absolutely no information...
And I'm being put in a position to make decisions, but I'm not being given all the information to fairly make informed decisions.
Like one time, my manager just freaked out on me, saying we HAVE to stop doing this... and I was just rode it out... Like WTF was that? And why of sudden the the freak out of no where...
I asked the #2 person, and they kindly informed me it was because their boss above them said we have to adjust it this way...
And I was like, oh this makes so much sense now... but like if someone just told me that, I could of had it adjusted for that a lot time ago, but no one told me.
And my manager believes he's telling us everything, when clearly he's not.
