How should I handle this situation?

My manager went on a vacation. She came back and had a meeting on some ongoing issue. I asked her "How was your vacation?" ( it was a 9 day vacation). She said: Umm, leave that and let's talk about the issue.I was like okay okay! It would have been nice to atleast say in a short sentence - was a nice trip, lets talk about the issue though. Am I overthinking? Or was that a douche move and ignore my question where I was being nice to her. CTC: 19 LPA

Sounds like everyone is thinking way too hard about this

Probably it was a bad trip ? She doesnt want to talk about it? Always give benefit of doubt.

Overthinking-She just came back from vacation. Probably got a shit ton going on. And you guys are in a meeting to address an issue- not a touch base call. No need to react, just get the issue on hand resolved.

  1. Give bad feedback about her because she wasn't ultra-perfect-nice in one instance out of the hundreds of hours she spends speaking with you
  2. Give good feedback about the guys you get along with because they are your bros and they say the terriblest things but not because they are douches but because you trust each other and you're bros
  3. Never ask yourself why women have a harder time getting ahead career-wise when there is no discrimination at play

I wouldn't say thinking too hard ; she seemed dismissive, which is fine. There are more subtle ways to go about it imo

Exactly, I'm getting so tired of coworkers complaining how btchy or bossy their teammate or manager is (who happens to be a woman) for asking them to do the bare minimum.And then they get completely sht on for not delivering or being incompetent and saying wow thanks for the honest feed back when it's a guy that's the manager or coworker.If someone is technically incompetent that's one thing, if your b*tching just bc someone other than a guy said it GTFO bro
