So, a little background information, my mom and I work for the same person as the same place, I work in the back and my mom runs the front, If I do or say anything wrong(which I’m admittedly known for that, I have no filter.) my boss feels the need to tell my mom on me all the time and can’t address an issue that he has with me to my face, AITA for wanting to throw in the towel?
NTA
But I’m of the opinion that you’re never the asshole for wanting to leave a job.
Most people quit due to poor management.
I am wondering though, does your mom scold you for these issues like a parent would? Because that’s not professional or appropriate.
Yes she does, and I love my mom to pieces but I just think it’s immure for my boss to do that
It’s time to leave and find a new job. One where you won’t be tattled on and scolded by mommy. I can almost guarantee your life will improve from this change
I appreciate this, I really do, I actually just applied for a new job after posting this, I’m truly over it with the boss for sure.
I recommend heading over to [https://www.askamanager.org/](https://www.askamanager.org/) \- lots of good advice and a good way of re-calibrating yourself with ‘normal workplace dynamics’ (because what you’ve been through isn’t normal in any sense of the word.)
Your boss is running to your mommy to tell on you? Yea, that ‘s mature. I don’t blame you. NTA.
Thank you for this
I used to work at the same place as my husband. Messed up royally once and the offended person told my husband and my boss.
After being advised by hubby and reamed by my boss, I called the offending party into a room and apologized. Then I advised that they had a choice in the future, boss or husband but not both. Told them I would be happy to call their wife at home the next time they messed up and after I told their boss.
They got the message as did the rest if the company as news spread.
I see where you are going with that, I probably should apologize to said person for being mean, which it was my fault for being rude to that person, that person told my boss and then boss told my mom. Its just that, i wish my boss would talk to me about issues instead of my mom, i just think its immure.
Sounds like its time to have a hard convo with your boss and your mom.
Yes for sure, because none of it is appropriate nor professional at all
Have you addressed this issue face to face with your boss? If you want to be treated like an adult, act like one.
And work on that “filter.” Not having one isn’t a license to say what you please, it’s a sign that you need to work on learning how not to say things that embarrass, hurt, or disturb others. It’s a small price to pay for greasing the wheels of social interaction and making it more comfortable for all us creatures to share the same small planet.
I would really like to address that with them but it’s really hard to get through to people that don’t listen just because you were wrong in part of the situation, the only look at what YOU did instead of the part where they were wrong in part of the problem, but you are right, I will do my best to be better, I haven’t always been be the best person on the planet, not a lot of people like me for who I am and I do see it to be understandable in most cases.
