Leah&Cole

Wow.... glad that you were able to get out of that toxic environment.  Enjoy your "unemployeed weekend" and good luck with the job search next week!

Good luck with the job search!

Oh I'm so sorry, good luck with the search.

I was just thinking about you.  So what happened?  It sounds like you are happy about it though. 

Mrs.EmmaLouise

suz-

I went in yesterday to talk to the doc, and was like "the way she treats me and talks to me is completely unacceptable and if that behavior doesnt stop, I will neeed to put in my resignation."  so the doc said we'd set up a meeting for tomorrow (Today.)

Well today our meeting was an hour later, and I was a nervous wreck.  I love my job, I didnt want to quit, but I cant be in that enviorment either.  so I go in fully expecting to argue my case, with letter in hand just incase.  And its my boss, the doc, and the HR lady.  Then the doc said "well, Emma, I thought about what we talked about in our brief meeting yesterday, and have decided to accept your resignation."  That was it.  Short and sweet.  Im a little pissed, because technically I never said I was resigning.  But I guess that means they arent willing to change her behavior.  so I handed her my letter, they are paying me to not work the next two weeks- offered me cobra, watched me gather all my things, and that was it.

Today is the first day this week I didnt come home crying after work.  Its a beautiful feeling.

How are you feeling?

SuzP

Wow.  On one hand that sucks because you didn't get to state your case, but on the other it's definitely best to be out of that atmosphere. 

I find it odd that they are willing to put up with that kind of behavior.  Obviously it's an issue if others have quit because of it. 

I'm glad you are doing well though. 

I actually had a good day today, just kind of nauseous and yucky feeling but not nearly as bad as I did the first two treatments.  Maybe I'm getting used to it?

It really sucks that they handled it that way.....but I am glad that you have such instant relief from the stress!! 

Mrs.EmmaLouise

Well, technically the other girl didnt say exactly why she left.  She said, "I feel like I dont get along here, and I know I can get along in other offices."

And- since her and I didnt get along when she first started (for maybe two weeks), they might blame that one on me.  Which is funny, because her and I would go out to lunch all the time during our lunch breaks at work, and infact have a lunch date this weekend.  So I know its not me she wasnt getting along with, and that it was my boss.

I guess ignorance is bliss.  Because they were willing to let me go, they should have six support staff, now they only have three.  and its hard when you only have five, difficult when you only have four.  And Im willing to say impossiable to do with only three.

Im glad you are feeling better today then you were the last two times.  Hopefully it stays like that!

What?  I have been popping of and off since it is NCAA time.  I know you had a really bad day a couple of days ago.  Did you say enough is enough? (that is what I was going to enourage you to do)  Prior to having DD I was "married" to my job.  After infertility, high risk pregnancy, etc., I learned that I work to live, not live to work.  I am back to a pee-on prn staff therapist and ironically making more than I did at an administration level.  Hugs to you.  I am sure it is exciting and scarry all at the same time.

GL! Enjoy the weekend!

Mrs.EmmaLouise

qos- you pretty much summed it up.  Exciting and scary.  I would bend over backwards for this job.  And loved working there, and loved the patients.  But my boss treated me so horriably, I could no longer take it.  They were willing to change, so I had to get out of there.  Im so relieved to not be going back, but worried for a job search. 

Ive never really had to look for a job, always was asked to apply by employeers.  There is two jobs in the paper, and they would be my last resort.  Most dentists in this town dont advertise they're hiring, because they dont want patients to see that they cannot keep staff.  Only officers that are desperate advertise in the paper.  So I'll ask around.  Im hopefull I will be employeed again before I get my last paycheck with the clinic.
