I was thinking about you today, wondering how your doing at work and if you are still currently having problems, I myself had one heck of a day today and ending up crying at work. It was awful, I am so tired and have a constant dull headache. I still have to pick up my daughter at church tonight though so my day isn't over yet. How are things going for you? And have you found a way to remedy your situation or found a way to deal with it? Thinking of you...

Awww, thanks for thinking about me. The day after I wrote about it in here, I wrote a note back to the boss and explained how I did not lie to her, how hurt I was that she thought so and how I felt like she's just been waiting for me to screw up.
She read it, ran up to the front desk where I was with tears in her eyes and told me that she does not want me to mess up . She said she doesn't like writing letters like that but she doesn't know how else to handle it. She wants me to know the things I do when I mess something up, but doesn't want to hurt my feelings. etc. etc.

I ended up crying too. I've never cried at work and I felt like an idiot doing it. But I did.

Things have been better since then. But I still don't want to be there forever. The people I work with are very judgemental of people and our patients (not to their face though) and my boss is just paranoid about stuff, since she is one of the owners. When they start talking about people like that, i just step back and don't say anything.

Thanks again for thinking about me. I hope your situation improves too.

Don't beat yourself up for crying at work. I have done that too, and I understand how you feel about doing it. But sometimes it is just inevitable. I hope things improve for you there!

ugh, another bad day.

My boss is just so negative and thinks everyone is out for her and her business. She's paranoid and it drives me nuts. I don't know if there really is a reason for her to be this way. She stresses out so easily. I'm the kind of person that lets things roll right off my shoulders with a sort of "well, what are you going to do?" attitude. Not that I dont' care about things but if there really is nothing you can do about "it" than why stress out? I've always been this way. But now that I work here, I am constantly stressing out because of her. I hate it.
She always seems to indirectly point the finger at me when something isn't quite right. For example, I needed to call a patient and make sure he knew how much he owed for his appt. I tried to call but his phone was disconnected. I told her this and she said something like "well, there is an 'update phone #' note that pops up when you put his name in. When he called before *SOMEONE* should have gotten his phone number." As if I were the someone that should have done this. But the thing is that I am the one who just put that note in the computer because I'm the one who called and found out his number was not working.

I did tell her this, and she didn't say anything.

Then when she gets so upset and crazy like this she says "i just want to blow my brains out right now" which is just a very disturbing thing for anyone to say. It really bugs me.

She is so sweet and nice to the other girl who works there, she can do no wrong. But apparently I am another story.

I'm going to try to stick with it till summer and then quit to stay home with the kids. I'm not sure I can take it till summer though. These bad days make me so sick to my stomach.

Good grief. She sounds like such a witch. I have no advice, though. {{{HUGS}}}
