SO Mad at myself

I let the jerk in the office get to me...I have posted many work horror stories, but today I really let her get to me....ITs a long story, but to cut it shrot, she emailed me so I got it when I came in this moring, telling me that she needed to speak to me about something very serious when I get in to go straight to her office....I did..she accused me of something, which in reality, she should have been following, chasing, as well as the company taht was involved, they should have been following and chasing too...but she claims I dropped the ball on it....then went on and on telling me she can be sued, lose her insurance license, go to jail....blowing everything totally out of proportion...so I finally speak up after being lashed at...she tells me if she does not get this straightened out, She will have to FIRE ME, so I hat to let her have it...gave it right back to her, told her she was rude, she has been harassing me through emails and phone calls, (at that she just rolled her eyes) I went on and on, went into the fact that the RECEPTIONIST who has been there less than 2 years is making the same amount of money as I am who has worked there for 4 years and I ahve a much harder job....Her response to that...'She did not almost make me lose my license'...I had it...I stormed out...But the part that makes me so mad at myself is that she made me cry hysterically...and its not easy to cover up when you work in a tiny office....I am usually so strong...I cannot believe I let her get to me like that.... Now I am just on the massive major job hunt...

i am so sorry to hear about this! i despise mean bosses!

I am so sorry to hear this Holly!!! I just left my job because of my MISERABLE boss; I just couldn't take the abuse anymore it was making me physically sick!!! If you ask me, I think you need to go elsewhere. I know it is a hard decision to make but in my case it was worth it!!! Nobody deserves to be harassed on a daily basis.

Holly,

I am sorry that you let her get to you but you are probably better off in the end. You have been putting up with so much Crap from her for so long. I would also make it a point to call the head of your company tomorrow and let him know everything. It is about time that he heard it all. I hope that you took all your documentation with you!

Jamie,

I ahve not left yet, I meant I stormed out of her office, and right into HIS...The OWNER...he basically did not say anything...just that he gave her the autority...he has no idea in my opinion, but I do intend to bring all my harassing emails when I do quit, or if I just decide not to ceom in one day, will sent a certified letter...it literally made me 'sick: all day to know what was happening, m my eyes and nose are BURNING from the hyserical crying i was doing, i SO did nto want her to know it bothered me....

Thanks for all the warm words of encouragement and love you are always here to give me

What a B*^$# this woman sounds like....I am so sorry!

Don't be mad at yourself. I am sure the crying was not a hurt response, more of a completly frustrated response. Hey, if you did not relieve it that way, you may have smacked her...lol

I hope you are feeling better. Keep looking, I am sure you will find a better job soon.
