So, whether youâre the employee or the boss, hereâs what to look out for. Buckle up.Their eyes almost never meet yoursSound familiar?Lynn Taylor, a workplace expert and the author of Tame Your Terrible Office Tyrant: How to Manage Childish Boss Behavior and Thrive in Your Job, told Business Insider explains why this can be a warning sign.She says that itâs tough for someone to make eye contact with someone theyâre not a fan of because âtheyâre afraid that you may be able to detect hostility, so the path of least resistance is for them to look away or avoid being around you wherever possible.âThey make it obvious they just donât careJennifer Winter (now Jennifer DeRome), a content strategist, writer and relationship manager, writes in The Muse that one of the ways you can tell that your employees donât think youâre doing a good job is that âthey donât play by the rules:ââAs a manager, you might not always be considered a friend, but how well your team adheres to the rules - both yours and the companyâs - is a great indicator of how well youâre doing your job. On the other hand, when your team isnât worried about the consequences of skirting the rules, that also means they arenât particularly worried about what you think - and thatâs a dangerous place to be as a manager. Your team may not always like you, but they definitely should be concerned with what you think and the consequences youâll enforce if they are nât working within the guidelines you or the company have set.âThey ask you way too many questions - and single you outReuben Yonatan, founder and CEO of cloud communication advisor GetVoIP, features an infographic and writes that one of the ways you can tell a coworker isnât fond of you is if âthey constantly question you.ââItâs normal to question colleagues occasionally, but if you notice that your coworker questions every decision you make (and rarely questions anyone else), itâs a sign that they donât trust you,â Yonatan says.They never make time for youThis just isnât fair.Alison Green, author of the Ask a Manager blog, writes on Daily Worth that if âyou canât get your managerâs attentionâ itâs a clue that they may not like you.â[Your boss] regularly cancels your meetings, forgets to return your calls and emails, and generally doesnât seem to have you anywhere on her priority list,â Green writes.
