Rant: Our new lead mechanic watches every move I make
Since he started, he stands behind me while I do basic checks on the planes. It makes me nervous and I worry about missing small things. How do you handle a manager who doesn't trust your skills?

Your rant about him watching every move made me rethink things. I used to see that as normal, but now I get how it kills your focus.

The worst part is how it makes you feel dumb, like the_riley said about dropping a wrench.

Yeah when you said it kills your focus, that hit home lol. My old boss used to time me on oil changes and it made me fumble the simplest stuff, like dropping a wrench or forgetting to torque a drain plug. That nervous feeling makes you second-guess everything you know. It's the worst way to try and get good work out of someone, man.
