| Jun 2, 2015 at 19:52 | comment | added | Monica Cellio | I've put this on hold because "am I right?" isn't a good fit for the SE format. If your question is about how to respond to this (or something else about what you should do about this), please clarify in an edit and the question will be reviewed for reopening. | |

| Jun 2, 2015 at 19:36 | comment | added | enderland | What is your question? No one here can read your bosses mind, we can only speculate - are you asking for constructive help in how to deal with the situation? Or just opinions about what you are dealing with? | |
| Jun 2, 2015 at 18:07 | comment | added | Zibbobz | @Dansmith That's much more reasonable, and sounds like your boss may be employing some annoying hyperbole to make you look worse. Which is another troubling workplace condition. | |

| Jun 2, 2015 at 17:06 | comment | added | Brad Christie | Putting that much time/effort into micromanaging has other issues (and they are probably under scrutiny themselves, though sh!t flows downhill). When his boss asks about what his team has accomplished, and it falls short, the easiest scapegoats are the "things out of his control", unfortunately this is your digestive system. Given you have a month, best to just appease. If it were me I'd be reminding them about how the job I'm here to do is getting done, and gently remind him of the amount of work you could both recollect by moving on keeping the emails to a minimum. | |

| Jun 2, 2015 at 16:11 | comment | added | Dansmith | I don't know about medical, but it's between 5-10 minutes in the toilet then 5 minutes traveling time as it is on the side of the building, the 20 minutes is an exaggeration. | |
| Jun 2, 2015 at 16:07 | comment | added | Monica Cellio | Are you spending 20 minutes on each visit like he says? Is there a relevant medical issue? | |
| Jun 2, 2015 at 15:45 | comment | added | Jack Fraser | I think going to the bathroom immediately upon getting to work can be seen as you trying to get paid more for doing less work. Not that, that's what is happening but it's something to be mindful of to avoid unnecessary conflict in the future. | |

| Jun 2, 2015 at 11:25 | comment | added | Caffeine Coder | I know it sounds quite odd , but managers often pick up on employees who are into their last lap . My suggestion would be , stay back 10 minutes more than ur usual office timing . This way , when he asks u can say that i make up that time by staying 10 minutes late . | |

| Jun 2, 2015 at 11:23 | comment | added | Dansmith | The problem is I can't get to work any earlier, I started at 10:54 today sent a couple of emails, then went to the toilet, I arrived back at 11:10 spending maybe 10 minutes on the toilet and 5 minutes traveling there and back. | |
| Jun 2, 2015 at 11:22 | comment | added | Caffeine Coder | Be sure , that you are on good terms with him as he is the one who will be writing you relieving & experience letter . Come in 20 minutes earlier than 10 or 11 and start working exactly at the mentioned time , afterall it's just for a month . | |
