I am like pretty much convinced that my new boss has OCD or some other compulive disorder issue. I have been pulling out my hair trying to understand the guy, because in the 11 years that I have been working here have I never encountered someone quite like him. He is an Administrator at a small private Christian School. I work in the office next to him.
Could someone please either verify and help me in what I can do to better get along with the guy? 8O ..I would so appreciate it.
Issues -
He constantly locks his office door when he leaves his office to go check on a classroom, go to the bathroom, etc. (I have never had anyone ever do that and the rest of never do when we just leave for lunch) I feel like he doesn't trust us at all.
He eats like nothing all day...very skinny. Drinks alot of coffee and hot water.
He lines up everything perfectly in one corner of his desk and works out of his briefcase.
I have caught him talking outloud to himself quite abit. He will cover his hand over his mouth and be chatting away. When he is caught he gets embarrased I think...I think that he is aware that he is doing it.
He has like re-written almost every policy and form at school. It's like a control thing for him.
He goes out of his way to keep things private. (I have never been so uninformed about what is going on at school.)
He is very particular that things are spelled correctly and gets upset quickly if people send out things he has not approved.
He doesn't delegate much. Things I used to do, and things I was in charge of have been taken away because he wants to control them.
He doesn't like noise. He hates when we have office chatter or music playing abit too loud.
Anyones take on this would be helpful. Maybe I'm just like out there on this. But I feel like he acts one way towards me and then when someone he doesn't know comes in he like goes way over board and is friendly. He has never asked anything about anything personal..my kids, husband and etc. I have had to tell him about any of my family. He will though of our families coming in etc. I don't know if I'm feeling like he is just one of the wierdest men out there or if he really does have issues that are affecting him that causes him to act this way towards me and it's I shouldn't take it personally.
Thanks again for any help in understanding this person!!!
