What complaints have you received from your supervisor(s)?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't usually talk to any other co-workers and when I do I usually end up insulting them. It's just how I am, out of habit from dealing with people who didn't understand me. I get yelled at for talking and for not talking with them.

My previous manager hated that I never said "good" when she asked how I was. Why ask if you want a fake answer?

I was told I was very "detail oriented" which is how I got into the position I am, but the new managers don't seem to care. I could go through and give them long reports and they would go "ok" and never look at them again.

Unfortunately I work in retail, worst work environment ever.

Working retail is like working in a snake pit for Aspies. There is no way to win in that environment. They won't appreciate your strengths and will construe your lack of desire to engage in BS as a serious flaw, rather than see it as the mark of superiority it truly is.

I don't think I've gotten many complaints about the actual work, but I've gotten complaints about not fitting in with the rest of the staff, being too introverted and too much of a loner and not making enough efforts to be liked or getting to know my coworkers.

My boss told me that I need to communicate with the members more (I work at a gym).

i am a researcher in the early stage of my career and when i move to some other position once the previous project is finished, i start with new people, possibly in a new country, learning new things. so my work is based on asking questions. and the other researchers should understand that, but sometimes they show me signs of being bothered when i ask them and i become easily scared and stop asking the questions in future. then they complain that i work on my own and do mistakes, because that way i have to learn things by mistakes i wouldn't have to go through if i asked someone.

Being rude (no explanation of what was considered rude)

Not working fast enough (when working faster would require a reduction in quality and the company was losing clients due to lack of quality)

Being "too emotional" in meetings (no explanation)

Not being willing to work off the clock (never mind that this is illegal)

Those sound a lot like the kind of criticism I get from higher ups. Including the lack of examples or proof of their words.

Got a repremand the other day for misunderstanding a woman that works in the office and calling her a bully and was told I don't read social cues and I am abrupt and rude. Meh can't take it personally, just concentrate on being better at reading cues etc.

You need to give more feedback.

Your not a team player.

Your to quiet.

Let me see... negative feedback...

I intimidate my co-workers... I don't smile and enage my co-workers... I don't socialize with my co-workers

I do not show enough empathy to my customers... I provide WAY TOO much information to my customers. I over-analyze situations. I need to be more assertive...

But my technical skills and problem determination skills are excellent...

I've been told my work is too good. Last week someone got hurt when a design created by an NT engineer who got fired a while ago failed. This engineer was the most incompetant imbecile I have ever known but for some reason my boss thought he was awesome. Upper management forced him to fire this idiot. After the ambulance took my coworker (it turned out to be not too serious and he only missed three days) to the hospital I blew up at my boss and said I told you repeatedly this was coming but you just wouldn't do anything about that imbecile engineer. My boss told me that that he would have never had to fire him if I wasn't so good at my job and didn't make his screw ups stand out so much. NT's don't go to work to get things done and done to perfection like we Aspie's do. They only go to work to get a paycheck and bond socially.

" You really shouldnt try to glass the customers, even if they do owe you over a thousand pounds and threatened your girlfriend and owe the pub half a thousand as well and were trying to strangle you until you fell down so they could kick you repeatedly in the face. and have been responsible for more than a dozen violent incidents and banned most of the regulars for bugger all and been using the work phone for their own gain... .. it might be bad for business."

Or words to that effect.
