Can I say "my work did meet with the satisfaction of my supervisor"?

Thanks

Yes. But using 'did meet' instead of 'met' would imply that someone had
said that it didn't and you are contadicting. 'Met' is neutral, a simple
statement of fact. hth.

Another possible meaning is "my work no longer meets with.."

Good catch!
