    I am trying to be positive and compared to many I have no worries but yesterday at work I had a horrible experience and need to vent a bit ...sorry.
    A couple of months ago my new manager accused me of something that turned out to be a complete lie which was fueled by a troublmaker but had me in floods of tears.
    It all blew over and she apologised but yesterday I had my year end review and it has all been documented at length by a senior manager as if it was true.
    I asked for it to be removed as it was untrue but only got the wording toned down as he said it was an event that needs further exploration as I reacted badly.
    I even had a comment added by this person that I had sent something in capitals even though I apologised at the time as it was not intentional but would have take ages to correct and was only a private note to this despot.
    Don't want to rock the boat but really feel I.m being targeted, to the point where they are saying they will have to coach me on how to talk to my peers !!!
    I have worked for the company for over fifteen years and never had any upsets or complaints and get on well with all my workmates.
    I feel I also have mild autism (like many) that makes me a bit direct at times but nobody has ever taken offence and I am friendly with quite a few outside of work.
    I ned to stay for another five years as my pension will pay out then and just wanted to vent, sorry .....much love W xxxxxxx

    As you said you did nothing wrong but they are concerned about how you reacted, just take the coaching calmly, listen to what they say and carry on. If you make a fuss it is only going to make things worse, and please do not say to them that you think you have mild autism, it may well be the case but it is unproven and they would almost certainly see it as making excuses. They will see that as reacting badly too.

    You have been there so long they must know you by now, they know how you normally are, so carry on as usual and treat the coaching as an enjoyable distraction from your normal routine.

    Please do not do anything rash.

    Wendy.....I didn't want to read and run....just wanted to say how sorry I am that this has happened to you. It all seems very unfair the hoops we've got to jump through in the workplace.......later peeps

    Flipping heck, their treatment of you sounds horrendous.

    Stick to your guns, and get it wiped or at least acknowledge that the allegation was false. What has the company done to the person who alleged you had done this?

    Good morning all

    MT2M belated birthday wishes
    ILGD Happy birthday

    Wendyak you have been offered two very different bits of advice.I will add mine I would take the training I love training days I get away from my desk, I get to talk to other people, I always learn something from just chatting to others Yes the appraisal may be wrong but it will be no longer be relevant next year but your acceptance will be noted and it will be relevant

    I am one those people who used to be so straight to the point No reason just less faffing but I am learning from my lovely online friends on here.

    Take care Think it over carefully but only you will know the right answer
