She says the boss is fed up of staff problems and yet when I ask her what she means she is evasive. if I push her to say what is the problem she says that when we question anything it just means more work for them and he is fed up of us causing problems. She then says for us to not to worry but to be on our guard because he is getting to the end of his tether! She took over this post last year and comes across as Mrs Nicey but I suspect she is playing with us and even telling him lies to validate her role and bloody good wage. The small staff team are great but we are also strong minded women who ask questions so we can do the best at our job - one which we all give 100%. . How do we handle her sarcasm and lies without going over her head and really causing problems. We did this once and one member of staff ending up suspended!! I am conststntly on edge now, my stomach is always churning and I worry what they are saying behind my and the staffs back.

do you not have a union set up where you work, it would be good to join a union for when thing like this happen. if you had a union you could tell them problems you are having with senior members of staff and they would beable to help sort them out without the fear of you getting sacked/suspended.

It seams to me that your manager cannot cope and is just not up to her job. The only way she get by is by telling lies and being sarcastic. I agree with the earlier answer as the best solution, take the problem up the chain of command and have your colleagues as backing.

Sounds like the solution is communciation.
Write a memo to her boss saying that 'It has come to our attention' or 'there have been rumours' that he is not happy with your work and you would like to discuss it with him to solve it/stop the rumours. If you all sign it, no one individual can be blamed and your supervisor isnt blamed for her part.
She is probably trying to make herself indispensible, if there was a real problem, her job is to be open about it and get it sorted, not to whisper and gossip like a teenager. Good luck
