Who here works in a warehouse? What is the correct etiquette to address a rude supervisor? He’s constantly getting on my last nerve.

Need context to give valuable advice that won’t backfire on you.

Agree, additional context is necessary, but the most likely course of action would be to get some evidence and take it up with the HR department

Depends on the degree of the rudeness. There's a big difference between being annoying to deal with and them being straight-up derogatory.

Yup, could be as easy as talking it out with your supervisor or perhaps you need to take it as far as filing a formal complaint with HR

It is best to address the issue head-on. Talk to your supervisor about your concerns and explain that their behavior makes it difficult for you to do your job. If they refuse to listen or change their behavior, speak to a manager or HR representative.

Speak to a manager or HR. Try to document any incidents of rudeness or mistreatment, as this can help your case if you need to file a complaint.

Speaking to HR would be the best thing. You don't want it to escalate or go unnoticed.

I would avoid any conversations without a peer present. Sorry to say but that's the world we live in. Not to mention it'll avoid the inevitable he said she said. Make note of any further instances with your HR. You don't have to file a complaint. Simply putting it on record should it continue.

I have a wee crush on one of the partners in my firm and I thought he liked me too, but neither of us did anything about it (which is entirely appropriate). That was all pre-Rona. Now I’m leaving the firm and pursuing another opportunity and staying in the same city. Since he’ll no longer be my boss, is there a way to find out if my feeling was correct? How should I go about this? (Especially given Rona?)

Lesson learnt:

Never tell your colleagues where you are joining beforehand.

I've been thinking about my career a lot lately. I feel like I've hit a wall, and I don't know how to get past it.

I've been at this job for almost 5 years now, and ever since the day I started, there have been problems with my coworkers. It's not just one person—it's everyone in my department, and they all seem to be working against each other instead of together. Should I leave?

Can't deny that I'm seriously pissed off about it.

Boss: I need you to stop challenging me on every decision.

Me: I don’t want us to have a confrontational relationship and I think we can agree something needs to change. When you make stupid decisions, that affects my business and it makes me feel like you’re not up to the job. That makes it harder for my team to do our jobs. I think to be an authentic leader I need to be radically candid with you and point our your mistakes. So are you willing to work with me on this?

Got braids. You'd think I literally got a face transplant from how shook my coworkers are. I would say over 10 people have stopped me to ask about them or comment on them and I've been at work for maybe 2 1/2 hours. It's all been positive, but am I wrong for still finding it annoying? They don't lose their minds when Sarah gets bangs or whatever so I wish they could keep that same energy.

How do you cope when your employer rapidly descends into chaos from the top down? Today is my 2yr anniversary with this company. In the past 6mos, they have repeatedly changed directions / goals, pushing out several supportive and productive managers in favor of a single chauvinist overlord who makes HR violations daily and does no actual work. HR denies every complaint made against him and he retaliates to the point of firing people. Very hostile. How do I survive until I find my next gig?
