The other people not knowing how to deal with you happens a lot. Some people when they get any little bit of "power" become the most obnoxious egotists on the planet and they (other people at work) may just be protecting themselves in case the balance changes (which it has, and like it or not is part of what comes from becoming a manager) for the worse and you become one of "those" managers.
As to what the other person might think...**** him. You can't control what he thinks or does and if he thinks bad of you now he could try talking to you or else, sadly, he just isn't worth it. Which I admit is easier said than done but if you try to internalize his problems it will eat you alive...and still do nothing about his problems. Some work environments are hostile as all get out, learn to recognize it so you can see it in the future and try to protect others when you can if you see the same happening to them-or at least don't become part of the problem yourself. |

Hey thanks for the comment. I mainly just wanted to get it out of my head. I've pretty much brushed it aside, but I suppose since I was so tired yesterday I didn't feel up to dealing with it.
I expected the change in people a little, the thing is it had started long before I became manager... I can only think I don't offer enough excitement for other people's amusement... i.e. they can't really gossip or say stuff about me. The manager stuff just made them more distant. I was already pretty aware that I don't have friends at this job. I feel a bit bad saying that as there are people that are nice, but... they aren't friends so much. I mean really thinking about it, I only really had one person at work that I really had fun with and he's gone now. As for the dude, yeah I'm pretty much in a Fork him attitude. I'm not really trying to figure out why or anything like that, it's just frustrating to knowingly be ignored. This dude loves playing mind games with people and doing stuff like that. It sucks that I can't really get away from working with him... but I'm trying to work on not having it or him effect me, because really I think that would amuse him. It's like he has to create some sort of drama for whatever reason. He's done this to other people too. On occasion I just have to vent like this... |

Eh, friends at work can be overrated. It can help the day go by but you aren't there as (at least at the theater anyway) because you all have the same passion-mostly it is a paycheck thing (...yes?)
And remember that you know can tell the dude he has to share info as if he wastes your time he can be looking at asking people if they want fries with that in the near future. ![]() |
