"I am a 60-year-old professional, not a 15-year-old staying out past curfew. Do I just continue to ignore these messages or do I say something?"
"My boss treats me like a teenager. When I don't sign into Teams by 9:30 a.m., my boss will text me, 'Are you OK?'"
A managerial employee with over 30 years of experience feels undermined by their supervisor, who treats them like a teenager despite their competence. The employee consistently works beyond required hours and handles additional responsibilities well. However, the supervisor's workaholic tendencies lead to passive-aggressive messages when the employee is not signed into Teams by a certain time. The employee questions whether to ignore these messages or address the issue, feeling frustrated by the lack of respect for their professionalism.
