I just recently started a new job and I don't mind the workload- I actually enjoy it, but the manager and owners are driving me crazy. A couple days after I completed training, an office "glip" went out to all employees (there are 5 of us in the office) that we are no longer allowed to wear perfume in the office. I later found out it was because the girl that was training with me had a not so pleasant perfume. I should know- I had to sit next to her in a small room for 2 weeks of training. This is one of many ridiculous situations that become new rules for the entire staff. I don't know why they don't just pull aside the person they are having an issue with and address it instead of making these ridiculous rules for everyone. On top of that, we are required to respond with "no perfume at the office". Another employee that works remote does not know how (or maybe doesn't care) to send a professional email. So, we all got chewed out about it. The owner said she doesn't know what is wrong with us and that she had to hire another office manager. Let that sink in- she said. That rant only accomplished one thing- it irritated me and reduced my work efficiency for the day. I work hard and I take a lot of pride in excelling at my position, but this job environment is so deafeating.
