AskABoss: 'Yesterday he pointed out something in the software that is so basic I could not even begin the task without knowing it. It would be like coming up to a typist and saying, 'If you need a capital letter, hold the Shift key.''
I left a toxic job back in June and accepted a higher-paying, higher-title position at a nonprofit organization I respect very much. The culture here is wonderful, my manager is fantastic, and, for the most part, so are my co-workers.
However, now it’s two months later and James cannot let this go. He will often come to my office to “remind” me of very basic task-related things, and when I ask if there’s a reason, he’ll say, “No, I’m just reminding you.” I avoid asking him any questions, because it inevitably leads to a condescending lecture that veers completely off-topic. I’m writing now because yesterday he pointed out something in the software that is so basic I could not even begin the task without knowing it.
Most people in James’s shoes would lick their wounds privately, but instead James has made the odd choice to try to build himself back up by lecturing you on how to do your job … a job he couldn’t do successfully himself and at which your skills are clearly superior. It’s possible that responding like this a few times will make James feel foolish enough that he’ll back off.
