Slight exaggeration.

I finished work at five, and packed up and went home. When I got home, for some reason, I decided to log some overtime from yesterday. I COULD have done that on Monday.

I saw a message from my manager, which was sent ten minutes after I finished, giving me two ridiculous criticisms.

She said I forgot to leave notes on someone's profile. When I read her description of the call, I vividly remember leaving notes on that policy, word for word. 

Then she criticised me for saying "thank you, have a good day, I appreciate it" at the end of a call. 

What did you appreciate about this call? I was puzzled why you said that.

What the [...] kind of criticism is that? The annoying thing, I'm not working tomorrow, so I can't say anything until Monday.

Why didn't I just relax and log my overtime on Monday?

I'm sorry this happened to you at the end of the week @florencefifty ! 

I can see how you feel that your weekend is now 'ruined'. 

Would you consider doing something different so that your weekend does not get 'ruined'? While you are at home upset over what has happened, I don't think your manager cares the slightest! Would you let your manager take your weekend away from you?

Think on this.

Kindest, tyme

That sounds like micro management!

I have no idea why managers need to do that? Do something nice for yourself and enjoy your weekend.🙂
