being a supervisor sucks

it sucks to tell people when they aren’t doing a great job, while they have graded themselves as stellar.
i get graded on how i grade, but even if i didn’t, i’d still grade the same. am i honest, fair, consistent? i like to think i am all those things, but when faced with giving tough feedback, i hate it. hate it. lose sleep over it.
when you enter the work world, you get led to believe that being a supervisor or being in charge of something is good! you should aim to lead! so i did.
being in charge of things sucks. you hurt the feelings of kind people. you get called incessantly while you’re trying to sleep through a fever. you get held responsible when the people you supervise make simple human errors. ugggg. my head hurts.
