| | What to Do When You Think You’re Being Micromanaged | | by Justin Hale |
|
| | When my coworker follows up on my projects, I usually answer fine. But sometimes I get the sense that he’s checking up on me and checking my work, and I lose patience and lash out at him. How can I deal with this situation?
Signed,
Snappy

| | | | I suppose I could butter you up and say this isn’t your fault and blame your jerk of a coworker. 😉 But I’m going to go a different route. I’m going to guess there are two possible reasons for your coworker’s behaviors.
He doesn’t fully trust you because you aren’t consistently reliable. He’s so stressed because of pressure being put on him, and he’s transferring that stress to you. |
