6 months ago, the first official day of new winery manager. I had served 9 years and seven months this time around. I had worked there previously for a different company. It's a long story. On his first day all staff under him was called into for a chat. I was excited, this new guy was going to bring change for the better. Change like enforcing gmp, accountability. Now I might not have to pack up other people's mess.
The cellar supervisor and I had a working relationship like siblings. We had worked together for a long time.
We are the same only I'm diagnosed/medicated and he isn't. He won't seek help, doesn't believe in the condition. I'm no doctor. But he's got it. We either got along great or not at all.
New managers first day. I'm excited thinking he will bring gmp to site.
My work was my world, everything.
He presents me with a letter , notice of (termination)resignation. I shouldn't have signed , but I felt like I had no choice.
And get this, there reason personality. Full praises for my work ethics. Not a problem there. My personality. Only 1 person there had a problem with my personality. And all of us on the floor have a problem with his personality. It's not so much what he said, (although he is a hypocrite, giving out warnings but does the same thing. How not to lead.) It's the tone and how he said it. He gets in your face, chased me to the car once yelling and beating on my window, because I didn't want to engage in his arguments. It's a long hard story to explain.
So reading your story sounds abit like mine. Mine situation is not great 😭
Hopefully it gets better, and works out for the best.
