wow! this lesbian can pierce space and time!
the overall impression I get from this is that the manager had exactly one thought in their head with this conversation: "I get to 'manage' my underling for making a mistake, and that's the only thing that's supposed to happen in this talk." so when it turns out that the worker had actually done what was asked, the manager is now irritated and conversationally lost and, of course, blames the worker for being "combative".
NT conversation always seems to boil down to mere assertions of social dominance, thinly disguised as reasonable discussion, and well—this is why I usually end up getting sacked from jobs after a while, because I've never been good at putting up with such fictions.

frfr. like it's something ive noticed with how neurotypicals categorize a lot more kinds of speech as "venting" than I do-- like, honey, you aren't talking shit about Bob because you need to get it out of your system, you're doing it because you want the interlocutor to affirm that you are a better worker or friend than Bob
yes! exactly. it's like they're asking for your permission to hate someone and they get peeved if you don't share the hatred ~Chara
