This is my second day back to work after 14 months of maternity leave and at the end of the day I was cornered by a manager from a different department who needs to talk to me at once (!) about my team.
She basically said "we are meeting tomorrow at 9 am as i checked your calendar and you are free, I need to make a formal complaint about your team.
I asked her what it was about and all she said was that they were unbearably noisy whilst I was away.
She then flounced off and left me standing there.
Now that some time has passed I am so angry, annoyed and anxious.
I think she is being ridiculous to wait until I get back to attack me like this.
She and her team of 2 sit next to my team of 6 and yes sometimes things get a bit noisy when they are on the phone but nothing that I would consider unbearable.
Having said that, I wasn't there this whole time.. how would I know!
I did have a catch up with our line manager (hers and mine) and asked if there is anything I should know and was told that everything and everyone went really well.
The problem is her and line manager are friends since high school (go on yearly trips together, dinner at each other's houses) and I feel that she will not be impartial in this situation.
I don't even know what I am asking. I guess I just feel anxious and can't sleep and keep running through every scenario in my head... including throwing a drink in her face!
I'm just trying to formulate my response for tomorrow... anyone have any choice words???
