My manager is single without kids. They love to start work as early as 7 am until 7 pm in the evening and closely monitors the team if they were at work for full 8 hours. I'm being asked a lot of questions for doctor appointments, in-office days and daily check-in time. They're not appreciative of me meeting the deadlines or deliverables earlier or on time but keen on complaining about in-office hours and concluding that I don't communicate enough. How do I deal with

such people?

It's hard to know what to think of this. If you're required to be at work for eight hours and someone makes sure you are, that's just how jobs often work. If you have times when you can't be there, someone may ask questions. Again, just how jobs work. Not sure how or why your manager's family situation comes into play in this.

I think there has to be more to it. Maybe not with the OP but maybe the team has problems staying the full 8 hours.

I've worked in environments like this before and people did not respect my boundaries. I think it's time you start looking for something else, where you are respected more!

I definitely think you should talk to them about the problem you are having and if nothing changes you should look for another job. It’s not fair for them to micromanage you when you are doing the best you can do.

Micro managing is terrible. I am wonder though is there more to this story? Do you have a history of leaving early? If not maybe have a sit down conversation. Does the rest of the company work a full 8? we have to be at work for 10 hours so that’s why i do.

What are the best responses for “a time when you led a team” in a consulting interview, for someone who has not had a managerial position (1 yoe) before? I also don’t want to use an example from undergrad so I’m kind of stuck. What are they really looking for in this question? Initiative? Impact? People skills? And how would you differentiate this vs “a time when you worked in a team”

What's up with commercials nowadays? The ones I worked on back in the early 2000s were so much more creative. Maybe everyone is running out of ideas?

I am an experienced CNA/MA (17yrs) trying to break into ER tech role. Previous company wouldn’t pay for phlebotomy class, and when I took a position with a company that would train me, there was so much drama and b.s.
I was out of there so fast because of the toxic environment. Should I just forget it and do my best to finish my RN?
