The interview itself did not have any particular problems.
Line X Department team leader
The male team leader is extremely woman-like, loves nagging, and can be emotional at times. He always has a sour expression. His department cannot retain employees and is constantly replacing people. He does not really chat with colleagues; apart from handling work, he hardly talks to anyone privately. He basically keeps to himself. Extremely rigid and inflexible. I couldn't stand it.
When I worked with a new colleague, our productivity was too low.
I told the new employee to take it slowly and work steadily. I hoped she could do the job well before focusing on meeting her own quota. The team leader then went to watch the surveillance footage and check the content of our conversation. Because the team leader nagged at her, the new colleague became very angry and kept saying that the team leader was annoying and nagged too much. The new colleague also asked about the team leader's situation at the company. To be completely honest, he really has no rapport with people.
Because of the first issue involving low productivity, when I worked at the first station, I recorded the numbers myself. As expected, that day's productivity exceeded the required output. This also protected me.
Later, when we did the same work again, the new colleague was working at the first station and again failed to meet the productivity standard. I was at the second station (the first station controls the productivity numbers).
At that point, the team leader nagged at both of us. He knew perfectly well what had happened, so I told him that I had recorded the numbers last time and that the productivity had met the standard. The next day, he told the new colleague that she needed to improve herself.
The next time we did the same work, when a new colleague was assigned to the first station, the team leader made an unreasonable demand: no matter what, the numbers had to meet the target.
As for the work itself, I felt it was quite okay. I can only say that I was unlucky to have encountered this team leader. Whatever!
I went to the bathroom two or three, sometimes three or four, times a day during working hours and was nagged about it. He was unhappy and kept watching me while I worked. I had told the team leader that, because of my health, I needed to drink more water, which meant I would also need to use the bathroom more often.
I felt that he was my team leader, and I had already explained this to him, but instead of speaking to me as one of his team members, he acted this way. I felt he was a person without warmth. This was the first time I had encountered a supervisor like this.
The last time, I went to the bathroom because of stomach pain. He came to the line twice to check on me, and adjusted the surveillance footage to look at the times I entered and left. When he came back, he questioned me about how long I had been in the bathroom. I became very nervous because of the bathroom issue, so I went to my locker to get my phone and time myself to see how long I had been in the bathroom. After using the bathroom, I put my phone back in the locker and hurried back to the line to work. I spent 10 minutes in the bathroom because of the stomach pain.
It took about five minutes to walk there and back, and my workstation was somewhat far away.
The bathroom issue made me very nervous and stressed. I often held in my urine, which caused severe swelling in my legs. In the end, the team leader pressured me into submitting my resignation.
I told the assistant manager about the situation. Although the assistant manager allowed me to provide medical documentation, I said there was no need because I no longer wanted to continue working. The assistant manager was also very kind and told me to think it over carefully and not act impulsively.
I went home and thought about it for two days, but I still could not accept this team leader or being treated this way. I truly felt wronged. I only hoped that I could encounter a good supervisor at my next job.
At my previous job, if I needed to use the bathroom, the supervisor said I could just go and did not need to say anything. It was very humane. Even if I was hungry sometimes, it was okay to eat a small bite of a biscuit.
As long as the work productivity met the target, that was enough.
We could even wear earphones and listen to music while working.
Later, because there were fewer orders, the company downsized and laid off employees.
Everything stated above is completely true.
