Basically, I'm working a temporary job at the moment and I was hoping to get a reference before I leave as my work history is a bit patchy. Despite doing what I believe to be a good job, confirmed by results and feedback from clients, my boss doesn't seem to like me. I get on with other staff members too. I'm always getting passive aggressive comments, being accused of things and she always seems to be picking fault.
I think she's a bit neurotic and projects her own insecurities onto me. When I started a few months ago, during the training I was asking questions and this seemed to get her back up. She seemed to take it personally, but I was really just asking about basic things I needed to know to do my job - what we would be doing on a certain day, the details of certain procedures etc. She just gave me icy cold answers and said something along the lines of 'If you need to know the fine details of everything all the time then you're going to have trouble working here, you need to go with the flow." I took the hint, but obviously, I sometimes need to know the details in order to do my job, and she always takes it personally if you ask!
Yesterday she falsely accused me of doing something she had requested the staff don't do. It wasn't a big thing, but it's really pissed me off, because I haven't been disobedient at all, I've followed what she's asked me to do the whole time I've been working here. I can understand that perhaps she just doesn't like my personality (not that she knows me very well either) but as a boss I feel she should be a bit more impartial so long as I'm doing my job well. Seriously, what's her problem, and can I do something to get on her good side so I can get a reference to make new job applications? I feel a bit hard done to, as I've really done my best and I need to apply for work after this job finishes, I'm hard up financially, but she's made me feel like she wouldn't want to give me a reference.
