Today I had felt hurt at work after I was told to do a task. My supervisor/sous chef had taken over. I when up to her and told her that I could take the last bit of the task. She said no I am fine I do not need help. I told her I was responsible for it. She repeated it again. I told her that I was not ok with it and felt left out because it was my responsibility. She ended up doing it all. I had walked away and worked on no letting it get to me.

I had later talked to the lady that helps out with events and does our schedules. She talks to the manager quite often and the other supervisor in another kitchen. I had asked her if there was a better way of talking to the sous chef. She had told me that she most likely thought I was nervous because they think that I am nervous quite often due to that I ask questions. Which that doesn't make sense to me. I told her that I ask questions to get what I'm suppose to do more clearly stated in my head. She said well you seem nervous considering for example when we ask you to do a cake you sigh which she over exaggerated what I do normally; I do sigh though because normally they ask me when I have many other tasks piled on. They ask me why do you stress you get it all done. I tell them yes because I overwork myself do to the many tasks.

I notice when I speak to my boss he seems rather hesitant around me. A lot of times he makes a joke around me and then says I'm just kidding right then and there. I don't do anything to make him nervous. My boss can be difficult time to time do to this behavior. The last time he made a joke to me I didn't respond right there and then because I didn't hear him correctly. He says what you don't understand jokes now and walked away before I could say anything. Which I would of told him I didn't hear him.

I wanted to speak to him tomorrow about me being nervous and say "when I ask questions I am wanting the facts clearly stated in my head before I go and do a task that I do not do often. I want you to know that I am not as nervous as you think, I've got to do these task to get better at them." Though I would state this more clearly to him after I say "I want to ask you a question. When I ask questions about an event I see that you tell me to not be nervous and that everything will be fine. Do you think that I am overwhelmed?" Oh I had to edit because I was also thinking of asking him how he thinks I am doing my job too, along with the situation.

Which I told him earlier in a discussion him and I one on one that I will ask him when I need help and what things clearly stated. It's almost like he is afraid of me. I do not know though. They say that I am uncertain quite often, though I think it is 50/50 because I see nothing wrong with it. I find it helpful into having a wider mind and not knowing everything. I do know most of the time when I do want something though.

My question is what are your opinions? Let this one go or speak to him and let him know what he thinks isn't all the correct.
