I work a highly demanding engineering job under a micro-manager. I am currently responsible for close to 40 ongoing projects I feel like she is setting me up for failure. I am constantly scrutinized on the work I submit (knit picking certain words to change or punctuation she would prefer), scolded for not sending a draft of an email to her before releasing, small mistakes are made out to be the end of the world and I am blasted about in front of my entire team, processes and procedures changing constantly and her backtracking on them, repeat data entry of the same information in 4-5 different spreadsheets, and daily activity logs to track productivity on the hour. I am overworked and constantly handed new tasks and responsibilities to handle and it’s becoming too much. I understand how to balance a heavy workload, but when does it become too much to perform effectively and efficiently? I’ve asked for guidance and assistance and I am made to look
like I can’t handle what I am assigned. I just don’t know how to go about addressing this. I love the company I work for and I am good at what I do, but this is stressing me constantly and I’m experiencing the worst burn out of my life.
