BOSS STARTS TO MICROMANAGE US BECAUSE HE THINKS WE DON’T MAKE ENOUGH FOR HIM

We got an email from our boss one day. It was a memo to all employees with the context that he was going to start micromanaging us.

He said he was going to be overseeing every aspect of our work and that he was expecting us to do more to make money for him.

Started to nitpick on every single detail

At first, I thought it was strange. My boss had never been one to meddle with our day-to-day operations. He had always trusted us to handle the tasks assigned to us. But now he was saying he wanted to be involved in every little detail.

It wasn’t long before my boss started micromanaging us. He wanted to know every single thing we were doing, from how we answered the phone to how we filed paperwork.

He also started giving us new tasks that weren’t in our job descriptions, like making cold calls to potential clients and researching new markets.

At first, I was okay with it. I figured that if my boss wanted to get more involved in our work, then I should let him. I wanted to prove to him that I was a hard worker and that I could handle the extra tasks.

But soon, I started to feel overwhelmed. My boss was constantly checking in with me and nitpicking my work. He was demanding more and more from me and I was struggling to keep up.

I was also worried that he was going to start cutting hours or even worse, let me go.

Decided to talk to him and left the company after he didn’t change

Finally, I had had enough. I went to my boss and asked him to stop micromanaging me. I told him that I was doing my best and that I didn’t need him to be constantly hovering over me.

But he didn’t listen. He just kept pushing me harder and harder until I felt like I was about to break.

Eventually, I quit my job. I couldn’t take the stress and pressure anymore. I had been doing my best, but my boss had been too demanding and I just couldn’t take it anymore.

I’m still looking for a new job, but I’m not sure if I’ll ever find one. I’m scared that I’ll end up in another situation like this one and I’m not sure if I can handle it again.

My experience with my boss has made me realize just how important it is to have a supportive work environment.

It’s not just about making money, it’s also about feeling valued and appreciated. I hope other employers will realize this and create an environment where their employees can thrive.
