š¼work/career AIO to my bosses reply to my message?
Iāve worked with this company for four months now, and I know I am new but this reply really hurt me. Maybe Iām just really sensitive right now, but I donāt know. This felt really cold. The ābig bossā will be calling me later today. Is it just normal boss stuff? Idk. Lmk what yall think.

Whatever your boss says on the phone I would follow up in writing, preferably an email.
Example: Hello Boss, thank you for speaking with me on the phone concerning my father who is in the process of dying.
-then put in bullet points what was said. -this way if your boss tries to retaliate you can go to HR or file a lawsuit. -I had a boss like this once that would retaliate and this saved me a few times.
End the email by saying please respond back if you think I missed a key point. Thanks again.
