I did not rsvp to a party because I had another event to attend.
I did not have to inform anyone else except for the department in charge of the party.
My supervisor went to the party and called me on the cell phone to say
why I did not rsvp and why I was not attending. My supervisor is not in
charge of the party at all. I am not happy. What do you think?

The supervisor did not know about the party until 30 minutes before it started. He looked at the check in list and saw that I did not check in.
He asked the people and they told him there was no rsvp. Then, he started calling me on my cell phone.

Its nice to socialise with work buddies, but I dont think it is a pre-requisite for holding down a job. I dont think your supervisor had any right to phone you and ask why you were not attending. Ok, I guess you could have rsvp'd, but surely they would know you are not coming simply because you didnt rsvp. I find it quite odd actually and I would ask the the person/people who organised the party what the go is. What was the purpose of the party....was an it important one....one that would propell you up the latter of success? I think your supervisor has overstepped his/her mark and probably was an attempt at control...letting you know who was in charge, that kind of thing. If you are being discriminated against because you did not attend this party, then you need to take it further. Your hours would be stated in your employment contract....anything over and above that is at your discression. Nope, he is your supervisor in your work hours, not out of them.

Sometimes "work events" are disguised as "parties". Whenever there is a work social event outside of business hours you should clarify if it is expected you be there. Either way, always rsvp to the dept and your supervisor if you plan to attend or not.

I think you need to take it to his supervisor and request a meeting to let them both know that you are not happy with the situation.

It's called power trip, it's happen more and more now, all over. Sad but true. Usually, this stems from ignorance. Just live with it.
