Crying at work... (vent, long, sorry!)

Jamers615

To make a long story short, we have a lot of people around here who spend more time typing out emails asking other people to do something for them, when they could just do it themselves.  I had a coworker pass something along to me to be taken care of, without being specific about it.  I did it, based on what the email said, well, apparently I did it wrong, and so something got shipped back ot us, that should have gone to our manufacturer.  Said co worker comes down to my desk today and reams me a new one for it, asking me if i know what I'm doing and understand the difference between us and the manufacturer, like I'm 2.  I showed him his email where he said "why hasn't this come back to US yet" and so on, always saying WE or US, leading me to believe it should have come here.  He finally walked away and I was left angry.  This person is getting a talking to today for passing work off, so it should be the end of it.

Come to find out a little bit ago, because of his coming down and yelling at me, I missed a shipment that was going international, and only charged them a US shipping rate.  It WAS my fault, I was flustered because of the confrontation with idiot #1, but that's no excuse.  The accounting girl calls me and SCREAMS at me for not charging enough.  I hung up on her and started crying.

She came down here, and I explained what had happened, and then she apologised to yelling, but I still can barely fight the urge to keep crying.

DAMN YOU, HORMONES!  And still have an hour and a half to go.  This day needs to be OVER!

I HATE getting yelled at.  I'm so sorry you're having a bad day.  DH better be extra nice to you tonight.

I'm so sorry for your lousy day.  Relax tonight and forget all about it -- you have to have a clear head to do any job properly the next day

I'm sorry about your day!  I had that last week... I'm an architect and something was incorrect and was installed.  The contractor barely yelled at me and normally I'm fine and can handle it... I was crying when I got off the phone even though it wasn't the end of the world.  Oy hormones!

I got yelled at today at work, over something I didn't even do.  It was my co-worker.  But I took it like a champ, then went to the bathroom and cried!  Co-working is on my list now!

I unserstand your frustration.  I had a previous post today around 1 or so about my ff....ing boss being unreasonable.  I was so upset and frustrated with him I almost started tearing up at work.  I left for a late lunch and took it out on my car a little and revved her little engine more than I should...and played some musice REALLY LOUD :-)  I understand your frustration, sometimes it is good to just let it out..hopefully it will get better and you can focus tomorrow :-)
