My boss wants to be copied on all of my emails related to my job! I am a professional with 2 advanced degrees (law and business) and have several years related experience. I started my job two months ago and everything seemed fine, but today, she requested I copy her on all of my work-related emails. I told her it made me feel stiffled, less credible with colleagues, and made me feel that she could not rely on my professional expertise. I offered alternatives such as having periodic updates with her to go over my workload or even forward her emails once I had sent them OR that I would copy her for a short period of time, such as one month, and then we could revisit the issue and she could provide constructive criticism or praise, if necessary ... but she said "no". I want to quit and already have several interviews lined up! I I took this job for more responsibility and independence and now I have less than at my previous job where I worked very independently. What should I do?
