They called it a special meeting, but I got scolded for real.

How many people were at that meeting? Did they say anything to others or did it just turn entirely to you? 🤷‍♀️

I was also happy thinking I was getting a full promotion once, but I had eaten something similar in front of the team. Then I realized that the boss was trying to "show authority outside." So we could swallow it. Nothing had changed 🫠

this is actually quite a common tactic. When you hide the error and sweep it under the rug, people think they aren't taking responsibility. But of course, whether this is right or not is debatable.

@camkenari I can only say that he just focused on me. He didn't talk about others, he concentrated more on me.

@pazardandondum it seemed to me like they're not displaying any authority outside. Basically, they've humiliated you. Why should we normalize such a thing? 😐

By the way, it's interesting that they say 'this isn't the performance.' It seems like they're still giving you a chance, but it's necessary to speak clearly and clarify things. What are they expecting? Have they set a specific goal before?

The real problem is that it has to be done in front of everyone. What is there that can't be talked about one-on-one? At worst, you could just send an email, call someone after the meeting, or something like that...

I think you shouldn't stay there too long 😂
