Manager: Speak with PersonA about ProjectX. Get back to me with feasibility and timescales.

Me: *speaks with PersonA about ProjectX*
Me: *does a few trials for more info*

Manager: Why did you not tell me you were looking into ProjectX with PersonA?

    @AmyShackles the two manager comments were 1 in teams and 1 email 😂

    If I reference hard evidence of what he said it's still somehow my fault

    @drego with that kind of manager its always someone else’s fault, even if the stabs them self with the fork while eating alone ;)

    Repeat after me:
    "What? You talked to them??? But that was my task! you are offensive, and not trusting! who can I talk to about your issues? your boss? HR?"
    If the A-hole does not do a 180, then talk to his boss.
