Kristie16 Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 I am in week three of a 14-week temporary job assignment. My career is high stress already but this one supervisor makes me so stressed. My head supervisor (who I interviewed with) is very nice but is actually in another state. But the guy in my office who is in charge until about 1 p.m. every day is very high stress and cusses all the time. It makes me soooo uncomfortable and I just want to break down and leave the office. He's not cussing at me. Although he asked me to do something once and I took too long so he yelled at me. I don't know what to do. I don't work well in environments like this. Other people have talked about him when he's away. I'm only here for 14 weeks, so it's not permanent or anything, but I can feel myself dreading going to the office when he's there. When he leaves, it feels like a weight has been lifted. Any recommendations on how to proceed? I dont really feel like I can say anything to anybody since I just started and am only a temporary employee, although I do think its affecting my work.
tinktronik Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Contact the temporary agency you are working through. They should be able to advise you on where to go from here.
Author Kristie16 Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 Well, I wasn't hired through a temporary agency. The out-of-state supervisor hired me for the temp job. It's a professional job. And the out-of-state head supervisor and I get along really well. But I never interviewed with the person who supervises me several days a week. I had no idea I would have another supervisor. And I don't really want to go over him, that might make him ever more angry.
