Having some problems at work, and not sure how to deal with them. There's a team of 4 I work with, 3 of us have worked together over 8 years and are a great team and have achieved a lot. Under 2 years ago, we have a new member join, I just don't like this guy. The leader in our team stepped down, and position was open. Although I didn't feel right time was for me with chaotic problems outside work, I didn't want to be managed by this guy, so put myself forward. I have many year experience doing that role, the interview was sprung on me as a surprise so I was un prepared and exhausted after a heavy hospital appointment. I failed the interview, and this guy got it, with no experience, which offended me. I am angry at the company I work for rather than this guy.
We had a big works dinner last October, and there was a couple of the cuf remarks he made which led me to beleive that my job would be under threat if he was managing the team. I did arrange a meeting with hr to discuss my concerns, but at the time I was struggling with problems with my landlord. I got called in to a meeting over a week ago, a look back on the project I had been working on. I got diciplined because I was close to the estimates I gave, but my estimates were too high. He also said this about first project, where a senior manager sent email and express how shocked he was that the team delivered the project on time because he thought the expectations were too high.
The other bits and pieces thrown up. I work from home 2 days during the week because I find working in the office difficult.I have been this is ok, so long as it doesn't affect my performance, but I feel I am being led in to a trap with the criticism on my performance. He then starts complaining about a skype message I didn't return within 14 minutes. I was making a cup of tea and having a break. I went through my skype log, and all other messages over past six months, I have responded too the same minute, or within a minute.
I am looking for another job, I did get phone interview this week, but I just got so nervous over the phone and couldn't express myself, so it went badly wrong. I used to enjoy my work, but just hate it now, I hate having to tollerate this guy, and have lost a lot of confidence with failing the interviews. I am pretty angry at other aspect. they told me the result of the leader role on the last work day before Christmas. I have told them about my aspergers and difficulties with depression and anxiety. It was difficult for me to get support because it affected me badly.
I have arranged a meeting with hr next week, so was going to go through my problems with aspergers again. I feel I have been too open with them and it was a mistake to disclose it
Trying to get my thoughts together on how I should deal with this
