I work in an unrelated field, and code in my spare time as I'm just starting out. Have to pay tbe bills somehow, amirite?

So my boss has installed cameras "for security", and uses them to monitor staff on a regular basis. A couple months ago he pulled me aside with a piece of paper. My "second written warning" (next step prior to dismissal) however I haven't received any other disciplinary action.

The warning contained 10 points, all of which made reference to observances over the damn cameras.

Please keep in mind -- I have been an overachieving empleyee for over 5 years, and friends with the bosses the whole time. My boss was in my wedding party.

    @Silvus I took my "reprimand" coldly and without saying a word. I have mae sure not to do anything out of the ordinary but also not to go the extra mile either. Doing what I can to get myself out in a timely manner.

    I am 99% sure this was actually in relation to a raise I received but they can't really afford (I didn't ask for it either). So maybe just trying to flex their boss muscles.

    @satrdaystatik looks like you're making the best of it then. Keep doing the needful. And either find somewhere else or this place will get better. GL
