Shouting at the manager.

The_Offside_Rule

What are the consequences of shouting (not screaming at your manager).

I'm on my way out anyway as i'm moving to a new job but he is really winding me up. I have a personal ongoing matter at the moment which he is aware of.

I have been approached by colleagues asking if I'm OK and that that had no idea and all that. I've asked them how they know at they said that Andrew (the boss) has told everyone.

He's a liar too by the way.

I'm not a particularly angry person but when he comes back off leave, I want to engage him about this.

I'll try to keep calm, but what are the consequences if I don't?

Thanks.

Possible gross misconduct. Maybe you need to speak to HR and mention that you feel that a confidentiality has been breached.

If you feel confidentiality was breached raise an official grievance with HR.
Far more effective than shouting and won't get you a bad reference and he'll have to explain his actions to the company.

Shouting at him and causing a scene will probably mean you'll get some satisfaction, but the downside as explained above is not worth that few minutes of happiness.

Move on to the new job and leave it would be my advice.

I can't think of any situations (bar on the sports pitch!) where shouting will bring a positive outcome.

Making a well constructed point in a considered and articulate way is more likely to hit home, and will also give you much more satisfaction.

Alternatively, if you are set on leaving, put it in writing, very dispassionately, and copy in a more senior manager.

If he has failed to treat your health with the confidentiality it deserves, then don't shout. Murmur. By email to HR, & his line manager, and ultimately Tribunal as *He* has committed gross misconduct.

Accept the (boosted by guilt) farewell collection & leave with all there grace & charm you can muster (fake it like he!!) so your colleagues & his boss know you're a good egg & he's the toad.

Hope you feel better soon. (Fling bread at ducks to releive the urge to yell & scream a bit? I've always found bouncing half a crust off a mallard very satisfying, especially when its mates near drown it to get the bread...)

Go down the breach of confidentiality avenue.Shouting may make you feel better at the time but it isn't the way to go, if it gets to your new employer even if your reasoning was valid it won't put you in a good light.
Your boss has breached your confidentiality put in a grievance and then he has the explaining to do whilst you are following the correct procedure this shows you are dealing with the situation in the correct way.Good luck.
