[quote=Anonymous]I started at a new job about 6 months ago. At my 3 mark review she gave me an “exceptional” review saying I’m a great culture fit and I am so organized and have great communication skills. I was thrilled and promised to work harder and better. At our next project, I was setting up the project plan. I went ahead and reached out to people to ask questions about how various parts of the project would come together. I noticed that my boss was being distant. Rescheduling our  check-ins at short notice and not responding to questions I asked via chat. At one point she sent me an annoyed chat saying “ I can’t handle this right now please contact X to get the info”.  I said ok and went ahead and reached out to others to get my answers as I wanted to move forward with my project as she seemed busy.

Well she finally met with me and was cold and angry. She said I can come across as snobby and give vibes of the manager from Office Space and if I’d ever seen that movie? And that people have complained about me being “aggressive” to her.

Since our chat she has continued to be cold and distant.

I was dumb struck. I have not been aggressive in any of my interactions with anyone I reached out to. I have been polite and kind. I also have been reaching out to others as she suddenly seems busy and doesn’t respond yo my questions or specifically told me yo reach out to others and handle it on my own.

When does she want me to wait for her to answer vs when should I be working independently?what is going on?

I am confused and she is confusing me. And her feedback seems untrue and unfair. [/quote]
