I had done that a few times because other wise I will leave around 30 minutes earlier if I'm done with my work on a normal basis. Which I told him I understand. It was stupid to leave that early when I'm full time.


Today he had asked me after it's been a few months what time I had left yesterday. I told him the time and asked him why he asked. He said because I didn't see a point of you coming in today when you left earlier yesterday (an hour). I told him I didn't mind coming in today, which today was my day off. He still kept getting on me about how he doesn't understand why I had to leave an hour earlier. I ended up telling him more on how the weather was terrible. The roads were a level 3 snow emergency too. That is why else I wanted to get out of there. I was coming in today to get more hours so I didn't see an issue.


I ended up working several hours today so I could get more hours in for leaving earlier and for calling off Monday do to terrible roads.


This supervisor keeps getting on me about "my own" hours. Which other employees get off an hour earlier a couple times a week and he doesn't say anything about that to them. And no this isn't an excuse. ha


I understand it's best to work your full hours which I have told him. Though it gets on my nerves on how this supervisor can be rather manipulative.


I wanted to see your viewpoints. Thank you!

I don't think the supr is being manipulative. If you feel your work is or will be finished early let him know beforehand so he has the option to give you something else to do. He may indeed prefer you stand around for an hour. That's his prerogative. You are making your own hours if you are showing up on unscheduled days because you left early. Not to be harsh but if I were him I would wonder why I needed a ft person at all. I would want someone who is both efficient and proactive. It could be the other employees have established that trust and communication.
