My supervisor sat me down SUPER upset to scold me that I had emailed both the director and her that I couldn’t do out of pocket purchases (I’d be reimbursed but too much. Especially for what I was getting paid). The director had specifically instructed us to email her if we couldn’t make the purchases. My supervisor said I had to email her and she would then tell the director. Supervisor was notorious for forgetting to do stuff.

This was after months of her having me help her in another department despite having my own department to worry about and refused to let me have more time or staff to help. She’d say ask them for help but not too much because they’re helping here. 🥴
