I'm feeling a bit worried and guilty cause I think I messed up at work and I just need to vent. I called up HR and kinda made a complaint about our area manager, and our area manager found out about it and called me up!
Basically we've been having problems with our pay. None of us ever quite get the right amounts, and some of our team claim to be owed hundreds of pounds. My supervisor has also claimed that she has contacted our area manager on many occasions to try to sort these problems out and he hasn't done anything to help at all. So I suggested she call HR, but she seemed reluctant, so I said I'd do it. So I did. But it turns out my area manager claims my supervisor hasn't contacted him barely at all, and he's played down the problems.
So now I'm feeling guilty that I complained about my area manager kind of behind his back without talking to him first. I had reasons though [my supervisor had told me she'd tried contacting him with no reply] and I explained those reasons to him and I think he understood. But still I probably should've tried calling him first. Lodging a complaint with HR is perhaps a little more serious than I had previously thought. I'm also feeling a little betrayed by my work colleagues for moaning and complaining and making outrageous claims, which don't seem to be anywhere near as big as they made them seem. Plus I'm a little nervous about seeing them tomorrow incase they may be angry at me for some reason. I don't think they will be but, as I often do, I may have overlooked something.
moral of the story: in future I'm just going to tend to my own pay issues, and the rest of the team can sort their own pay issues out themselves. I'm not gonna get involved!!!
