I am now a intern of Rouse. Rouse is a firm that provide legal services. Every people here are very nice except my supervisor.He is harsh to the interns. unfortunately, my executive desk is next to him. When he goes by, he always takes look at my computer and see what I am scanning. If I scan some websites that have nothing to do with my work, he will say something to me ironically. I feel so uncomfortable to see next to him. Now there is an opportunity to move away from him and I want to grab it.However, I'm afraid to talk him about this, since if he doesn't approve of this, I don't what to do. Mylotters,can you tell me what to do? should I move away from him?

hi freind! all you need to do is to asked or approach your boss nicely.you might not be getting the story behind his actions,maybe hes into something thats not easy to handle,you just have to understand him a little more.try to be a freind to him.maybe he has no one to hold on and talk to regarding personal matters that may affect his behavior or how he deal with her co workers.you just have to be more understanding.pray to god to ask for guidance-because he will guide you tio the right way.dont arrive into a decision that is grounded by your emotion. let god decide for you,just know how to listen to him.!!! try to do it my friend you will surely get an answer from god.

Thank you so much for your kind advice. Maybe I should try to know more about him and be more considerable.

Hi. Anniejiang. Welcome to myLot! I think that you should move away from your boss if you feel like he is just giving you a big headache. When you move, will you still have the same type of job that you are doing now? Or will it be something completely different? I think that you should just talk to him and let him know of your decision, he can't stop you because you have a right to depart if that is what you choose to do.

If you feel not comfortable with your boss or your supervisors. You need to move if there's a chance for you yo move. Because you cannot do your jobs well if someone will always look at you and observed you...

I remember I had problems with an acting director of the company. The former superior retired and another one was not really elected. I felt she made me depressed, she was not understanding, and used to shout on me even if visitors were in the room. I stopped collaboration with her. It is really unpleasant if someone tries to check every action. If you have a good chance now to change your work conditions, maybe you should use it.
