Maybe he just needs more communication? Maybe he feels like he's not getting communication from you so he sort of bears down. You could try proactively communicating so he maybe learns some trust and backs off. I'm not suggesting you are wrong or doing anything wrong. Just suggesting a way to change the relationship. __________________ What if I fall? Oh, my dear, but what if you fly?

Here also I don't take issue with him checking, I take issue with the rude and disrespectful way he sent an e-mail with all question marks like a spiteful little brat. You just don't send out things like that dripping with attitude. You say -- did you hear from "X" yet? - "Did you hear anything?" |

I don't really know him or the full situation - you can only know so much from a forum post - but I would often recommend just having an open discussion with a boss at this point and figuring out the best lines/means of communication and also that disrespectful communication does not inspire better work from me. I'd probably say, I want to do the best I can to support you and your work, and I cannot do that when I'm receiving disrespectful communications or communication that includes sarcasm, etc. Sometimes you can have that conversation, if you can leave your hurt feelings out of it (which is really hard), but if it's going to be too emotional, it would only backfire. __________________ What if I fall?

I am also taking a vacation in a few weeks so I hope that the space / needing to work with someone else during the vacation who is covering for me -- might make him more normal. It is also difficult to have a sit down now in the age of corona where I am at home. |
