The interview itself was not a problem.
Line X Department Team Leader
The male team leader is extremely woman-like, loves to nag, 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; aside from handling work, he hardly talks with anyone privately. He basically keeps to himself. Extremely rigid. I couldn't stand it.
When I worked with a new colleague, the productivity was too low.
I told the new employee to take her time and work steadily. I hoped she could do the job well before focusing on meeting her own production numbers. The team leader then went to watch the surveillance cameras 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 extremely naggy. The new colleague also asked about the team leader's situation at the company. To be completely honest, he really has no interpersonal appeal.
Because there had been a problem with low productivity the first time, when I worked at the first station, I recorded the quantities myself. Sure enough, that day's production exceeded the standard. This also protected me.
Later, when we did the same job 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 production quantity).
At that point, the team leader nagged at both of us again. He wasn't unaware of what had happened, so I told him that I had recorded the quantities last time and that the productivity had met the standard. The next day, he later told the new colleague that she needed to improve herself.
The next time we did the same job, when a new colleague was at the first station, the team leader made an unreasonable demand: no matter what, the quantity had to meet the target.
I felt that the work itself was okay. I can only say that I was unlucky to encounter this team leader. Whatever!
I went to the restroom two or three times a day, or three to four times a day, during work hours, and he nagged at me. He was unhappy and kept watching me while I worked. I had previously told the team leader that, because of my health, I needed to drink more water, so I would also need to use the restroom.
I felt that he was my team leader, and I had already explained this to him. 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 restroom because I had a stomachache. He came to the line twice to check on me and reviewed the surveillance footage to see when I had entered and left. When he returned, he came to question me about how long I had been in the restroom. I was very nervous because of the restroom issue, so I went to my locker to get my phone in order to time myself and check how long I had been in the restroom. After using the restroom, I put my phone back in the locker and hurried back to the line to work. I was in the restroom for ten minutes because of my stomachache.
It takes about five minutes to walk there and back, and the workstation is somewhat far away.
The restroom 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 work there. The assistant manager was also very kind and told me to think it over carefully and not act out of emotion.
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 really felt wronged. I only hope that at my next job, I can meet a good supervisor.
At my previous job, when I needed to use the restroom, the supervisor said I could just go and did not need to report it. It was very humane. Even if I was hungry sometimes, it was fine to eat a small biscuit.
As long as the work productivity met the target, that was enough.
We could even wear earphones and listen to music at work.
Later, because there were fewer orders, the company downsized and laid off employees.
Everything stated above is completely true.
