I know, I know, I shouldn’t have checked my work emails whilst I have two weeks off. However my out of office wasn’t apparently working so I logged on to double check I had it implemented.
I noticed an email sent today from my boss to me regarding a file I had been working on, I had accidentally forgotten to send someone on my team a document on Friday. Not the biggest issue in the world as my colleague can access my files with no problem. My boss has obviously got wind of it and has sent me an essay through email accusing me of doing it deliberately, about how pissed off he is about it, about how much extra work I’ve caused the team. It’s all completely uncalled for and has really upset me. He then sent another email saying how unimpressed he is of me. It’s ridiculously over the top and it just comes across at him ranting at me. In both emails he has cc’d in my entire team so they all got the pleasure of reading it.
I feel sick to my stomach as he regularly goes off ‘on one’ and it’s usually in my direction.
I know I’m going to dwell on this now. I’m not sure how to handle it when I return. I want to be professional but I’m sick of being on the end of these rants, always through email.
