Girlies… i work at a lab i transferred from another lab in the same building for 3 weeks ago. I had a coworker—a team lead by the way—throw a huge fit aggressively banging and pushing things and snapping at ppl over a simple mistake me and my trainer made

Should… I… say something bc she was being really obnoxious and it was kind of scary and idk if the managers witnessed this or know about it.

Agree with #1. I also work in a lab and idk what kind of lab it was for you but mine is a BSL2 and that shit would not fly if you want to keep accreditation. And honestly regardless of the type of lab or workplace that’s just not how you handle yourself professionally

report it. having a crash out at work is extremely unprofessional and not okay. it could definitely be explained my mental health issues, but if that’s the case, she needs to go to therapy. especially if it was so bad that you think it was scary.

I think we’re BSL2 we deal with salmonella, E. coli, listeria and so on. ISO accredited, FSIS, GFSI stuff like that… yeah I thought it was really inappropriate, I’m just a little wary because just started this job 3 weeks ago and she’s a team lead. I think I’m going to talk to someone in management just to make them aware of it. She probably has too much on her plate but regardless, she can’t be acting like that.

I agree and I definitely would like make it clear to them that you ALSO feel uncomfortable going above her head like that but it was a really uncomfortable situation being in the lab at that moment
