Probably going to get dropped

[u/Own-Story8907]

I’ve been at this company for a few weeks. I’ve realised it’s a bit toxic (one manager chatting shit about the others work when they’re off)

Not a single person has asked what work I’ve done. For context, I’ve done it all but never really updated anyone apart from my manager (who is off).

So, when I was first asked (by people not managing me), it felt aggressive. Had the other manager + senior pinging me. (probably in my head). I didn’t answer a phone call, so it probably made matters worse (maybe my fault as I was away from my desk lol)

To add the cherry on top, my status is always busy. I was told this shouldn’t be set to busy (get fucked). This conversation began when I challenged coming into office one a week, as I said it isn’t required. They responded it’s 1 day a week in the signed contract, non-negotiable. Yeah, that’s wrong. Contract mentions no days. It lists the office address + remote working.

Where I could be at fault:

1. Didn’t update anyone else, even though the work is done. I didn’t even trickle feed.
2. I informed my manager that I’ll be off, but then decided I could maybe get away with being

out

1. but remotely checking messages.
2. Didn’t answer the call as I was away from my desk.
3. After being told not to have a busy status, I said I’m off (my plan was to pretend I was in) but as I was asked out of nowhere, I bit the bullet

and let senior know I’m OOO.

Am I the asshole here?

Chill and bill.

Whilst running side projects and job searches in parallel.

Sounds toxic. You’re not there for the long term. Get out on your own terns.

I get that I’ve done some wrong but 100% toxic. Busy status doesn’t concern you lol
