I am just feeling so overwhelmed! I feel so suffocated by every aspect of my life. I work at a job that I literally hate with a passion. However, I have backed myself into a corner with this debt. I feel as if I have no options with my job. I have been there for 14 years. I live in a small town where jobs are few and far between. I work with a lady that is a bully and tries to pawn her problem work off on others. Well, today I stood up to her and said no. Needless to say she went and tattled on me and now I have heard through the grapevine that more than likely I'll be called in the bosses office tomorrow. I want more than anything to be able to walk in there and give my notice but my debt won't allow me to. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks for letting me vent.

With what little bit you put it sounds as if Crabby(just her name for here;-)isn't your supervisor or even in a position above you. Be very careful not to sound like you are a whiner but I think it is within your right to very sweetly ask for job clarification. Is she your supervisor can she boss you around? You already have your own work load that you need to get done.

I can't appreciate being somewhere you loathe. I have neve had that problem. My hubby marvels that nothing really phases me....I can do the stupidest most mundane things and just don't care. But I can appreciate working with someone that is difficult.

Good luck! maybe someone else will have better advice.

Good luck w/ the boss!


Definitely, if they ask you why you didn't do what she asked, ask for a clarification of your job!
