Hi, I recently changed career to go back to a job I was doing about 16 years ago but at a lower grade. This fact doesn't bother me at all, I have a family now and don't need the hassle.
My problem is my boss, I just don't understand her and am finding it really hard to work for her.
To start with she majorly lacks social skills, e.g no how are you, how was your weekend etc. She just sits with a stony face in front of her laptop all day and virtually ignores me (we share an office).
Although I'm not over the moon with this I could cope with it apart from the fact she just won't give me anything to do!!! This is my 4th week and she's only given me petty menial things to do (my role is Assistant Technical Manager, she is the Technical Manager). Every day I ask her for more things to do and she replies (with no eye contact) later, not now, am too busy. I am so bored and am really close to walking out.
AIBU or should I say something?
