So when I first started at this job in July, a peer, Jane, was assigned to oversee my onboarding. Ok she was a peer but felt like a superior. Jane was responsible for my learning the job, she’s been around for 4 years.
I still use her as my first point to answer questions of mine. We’re friendly too. I tell her a little about Mona too. It’s all good.
Now I’ve been there 6 months now. We no longer have our onboarding calls. And today, she mentioned how she was unhappy with the job/ company. At that point, it was official: we’re equals. Superiors don’t complain about their jobs to people under them.

Not sure that’s always true… depends on the subordinate! But it’s definitely not good form.

I always feel that complaints should go up, not down

Why does it have to be just one? Lol…
Does she have peers with whom she can vent? Is what she was complaining about relevant to you? Was she looking for your opinion?
