Should I be concerned my supervisor said this to me?

"You have that look in your face that you are fed up with this job and want to move on"

 

 

Should I be concerned?

[D-Lish]

Possibly. The comment could be in direct response to the moment- or it could be a response to performance issues that he has taken note of and decided to bring it up as an opportunity arose.

 

If you're in doubt, ask.

[amerikajin]

Yes, you absolutely should be concerned.

 

How did you respond? What did you say? If your response wasn't an adamant denial, then I would be even more concerned.

 

A good rule to live by: keep the person who does your payroll happy.

In my world (where dirt and grease predominate), that's a boss getting ready to kick your azz out the door.

[Jilly Bean]

Agree with Carhill. Get the resume together.

[SoleMate]

It's not good, but please do at least make an effort to assure your boss you are thrilled with your position and what to do whatever is necessary to do it right.

 

Then work on your resume.

When I am building up to fire someone, I do resort to nit-picking...

[green_tea]

I disagree with the others - it depends on how he/she said it to you. It's possible they are WORRIED that you might want to leave. I once had a boss think I might be wanting to leave, and had a meeting with me to reassure me that I was valued and that he didn't want me to go.

Translation : " I am fed up with you and sick of looking at your face "
