Next week will be the last week for this tedious education project.
This project makes feel exhausted not because it’s work time — as an overseas project, it’s work time is less stressed than most local cases. However, working with the manager of this project puts a lot of pressure on me. This project manager is known for his harsh working style in our firm. During the last few weeks I worked with him, I’ve been criticized strictly by him every day. I am generally a personwho is willing to devote my time and effort to my work, and I have built my image of “a smart and diligent fresh man” in my firm through my past 2 projects, but my confidence has been challenged in this project, and I feel bad for it. I understand that i can’t change his way of expression and all I can do is getting used to it and be responsible for the quality of my work. My friend told me that I should feel lucky for that this is not my first project otherwise my confidence might be destroyed for this project 🙁

However, working with the manager of this project puts a lot of pressure on me. This project manager is known for his harsh attitude / strict working style in our firm. During the last few weeks that I worked with him, I’ve been criticized harshly by him every day / daily / on a daily basis. I am generally a person who is willing to devote my time and effort to my work, and I have built my image of “a smart and diligent freshman” in my firm through my past 2 projects, but my confidence has been challenged in this project, and I feel bad / I’m a bit down / I’m a bit deflated as a result.  I understand that i can’t change his way of expressing himself and all I can do is get used to it and be responsible for the quality of my work. My friend told me that I should feel lucky that this is not my first project otherwise my confidence might be destroyed by this project 🙁
