My Dream
Full time employment: Posting here.
My wife had her performance appraisal done recently and is somewhat upset due to one situation. He boss criticized her for not performing one task of a co worker of higher levels properly while this employee was on vacation and DW stated that she wasn't told or taught that it was supposed to be done this way. Her boss told her that she should have asked. DW stated:
How do I know to ask if I believe I'm doing it properly?
The co worker has also done similar mistakes and she's not criticized for it therefore DW assumed she was doing it properly.
He bosses answer was:
She wants everything done her way and DW should always ask if she's ever in question.
She can't fault the other employee since her boss herself makes the same mistake.
DW now has to go before her boss’s boss to review the results of her performance appraisal and feels she can't question or comment on the situation since her boss will take it very personal and makes it a point to get her back or make her life a living hell. Her boss also doesn't like it when employees try to be more efficient since it would make her boss look bad since she trains her employees and feels she hasn't missed anything. You see her boss believes she is the best in her department and nobody can do a better job then her. She doesn't like to be questioned and wants her employees to perform there job to the letter as they were trained. If ever in doubt don't take the imitative and try to do a better job, ask and her boss will tell you how to do your job. Her boss is 2 years to retirement and still takes her job very seriously.
