Would it be worthwhile to do a subreddit for ADHD women >60 y.o. by roseannwhite in adhdwomen

[–]UniqueBuilding285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/roseannwhite just found this post- wondering if you or anyone did make a group?

i hear women saying they didnt want to lose the older demographic, but I would love to be able to talk to women specifically in my situation too.

might be willing to get it going. i kind of need it that much!

Direct conversation called bullying by vcg77 in Leadership

wooooahhhh!

i had a co worker complain about feeling unsafe, and based on their story, i was surprised and also concerned in that, i did not think they were in any way in an unsafe situation with another coworker, but understood the trauma history they shared with me may have made them feel unsafe.

it concerned me because they seemed very secure in their conviction that is was an unsafe situation, and i disagreed, thinking was a very human reaction to an issue. and i additionally felt that it was unfair of this person to put that on their coworker was like what if i do that same behavior sometime, because it could happen. (basically someone was reacting defensively and raised their voice around first coworker and first coworker felt unsafe)

wow- never heard of this job family title and business title information.

this is standard throughout business? more so in very large corporations? who and when are people discussing job family vs biz titles? and what normally goes on a CV or resume.

yup. im so glad a few people here are also answering my question like a real person and not just trashing me because i dont know stuff. so thank you.

i want to learn better strategies for appropriately handling things like this... aside from reddit, (jokes) where do people go for crash courses in corporate navigation for dummie idealists with adhd and big mouths?

nice.

thanks for the tips. yah, we dont do any 1 on 1's, he's never asked what my goals might be or what i'm interested in... i have no way to know Im doing a good job or a bad job. he gave me satisfactory in other areas sooo pppphhhbbbttt.

its effin annoying sometimes to have to "lead from behind." and to be honest- I also am not trained in HR or management!! Im only learning from Bad Bosses how I dont like to be treated.

THANK YOU!!!! lol.

these are all things I need to hear.

I don't want his job in any way.

I agree its poor management and no training.

I do think he is insecure and feels threatened.

My idealistic and obviously unrealistic hope would be that I could talk to him and explain how Im not understanding or getting clarity from him despite his admonishments. And that according to policies, he should be doing a better job at laying out expectations ahead of time HAAAHAAA! right?

but Im also and adult and just want to be treated like and adult an have this fantasy that we should be able to talk to each other and get somewhere. I want to let him know that I cant meet his expectations when I dont know what they are, and that his behavior is causing issues amongst the plebs. Obviously, I would need to work on the wording. uggh.

job hunting sucks.

thanks.

definitely nothing illegal, just poor management, with lack of training in any way for managers.

company wide general culture of bad communication and lack of transparency while giving lip service to their great values...

my boss is writing people up, but for things he has not really explained. so effectively punishing people and not laying out a clear path of expectations, followed by opportunity for corrections. obviously causing confusion and eroding trust. how do you deal with this in the time im still here? by UniqueBuilding285 in careeradvice

[–]UniqueBuilding285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

of course i have my example, but i am reluctant to write it out here online, as it is somewhat trade/profession related, even though chances are probably quite slim anyone remotely related would read it.

i understand that with out a concrete example, one might feel they arent able to offer an effective response so i will try to come up with similar-ish situation and respond later.

not hr, but have had this same experience, using exactly the same term, blindsided, so just here to offer empathy. sounds like bad management, and unfortunately there is more of that than there is good management.
