Was my boss right to yell at me like she did?
I was out of the office all day for a single day last week (Wed). As soon as my boss walks in which normally isn't until noon, she goes around to everyone's desk to check our progress. Right now I'm in document scan mode. When she noticed that I was just now finishing up the box I started Tues afternoon she yelled at me in front of everyone "What is your problem? Why are you 2 boxes behind Sam (not his real name)?" At first I was kind of freaked out because her yelling was so sudden. ...but when I got my head around I politely reminded her that I was out all day Wed. To that she said "No excuse." ...and she stomped off to her office. After it was all over my coworkers just glared at me and gave me the silent treatment for the rest of the day.
Keep in mind this is a very small company w/ only 4 employees (including myself). It is owned by my boss' husband so there is no HR dept to report stuff like this.
Was it wrong for me to remind my boss that I was out that day? Why were my coworkers giving me the silent treatment?
