Can leave work on time

After a typhoon day is announced, the company requires employees to check the wind and rain conditions the following morning before deciding whether to go to work. Before leaving home, a colleague reported that the wind and rain were severe, but the supervisor only asked whether there was flooding. When the colleague said there was not, the supervisor replied, “That’s good,” and said we still had to go to the office as usual, finish handling our tasks, and then leave early.

When training new employees, they say to ask questions if there are any problems. However, senior employees and supervisors are obviously impatient with employees they dislike. Their instructions are often unclear, causing new employees to make incorrect judgments, yet they then blame us for not doing things based on “I thought” or “I felt.” Throughout the learning process, they basically treated me with a consistently negative attitude. There was so much work that it was impossible to finish everything, leaving me overwhelmed. When I raised this with the supervisor, they simply opened their own notebook and told us that they had even more work and that we should arrange our own workload.

I still remember that once, during an especially busy period, I made a mistake and was yelled at and blamed by the supervisor in front of everyone. I then wanted to ask a senior employee how to resolve it, but was immediately snapped at: “Are you asking me what to do now?” I genuinely needed an answer and wanted to resolve the problem quickly, but in that situation, besides panicking, I did not know what to do. Things like this happened repeatedly, making me feel that the workplace culture was such that only if the supervisor liked you would there be a relatively friendly atmosphere (although there would still be more work than you could finish). Otherwise, no matter how much effort you made to get up to speed quickly, as soon as you made a mistake, you would be criticized as though you were completely useless! This work experience only made me feel that I was terrible and of no use.
