Boss Turns Waiting Into a Power Move 😤
Every Monday, I walk into my manager's office for our scheduled meeting, only to be greeted by her typing away at her computer, barely acknowledging my existence. I sit there, awkwardly watching the clock as she crafts an email, making me wait...and wait. Ten minutes, twenty, sometimes even forty—she just keeps going, as if my time means nothing.
Last week, I finally spoke up, telling her how uncomfortable and pointless it felt to just sit there. She snapped back, reminding me that she's the boss and I should wait quietly until she's ready. Now, I'm left feeling powerless and frustrated, dreading these meetings more each week.
Is this just the way things are in the corporate world, or is there a better way to handle this? I could really use some advice from anyone who's been through something similar. 😔
