Need to vent! Maybe some advice too?

I just need one of you ...or all of you, to agree with me ;) I keep getting crap at work for not doing things perfectly. I'm a manager at a retail store, yesterday I worked an 8 hour shift from 2-10pm when I normally have been working 6 maximum this last month. I'm due in one month. I'be been working fine up until my 8th month. I'm sore and tired but I really am trying to do my best. Today I see on Facebook about how a coworker would slap the lazy out of "someone" if she could. I know she was referring to me because I'm the one that closed last night, I had to reset the sale for the entire store. I thought I did fine but apparently not. Bottom line, they need to back off! Right? My boyfriend wants me to speak up about it but I just feel like I'm almost done, so why bring it up and start something. What would you do?

  • Someone's thought about you is none of your business.
    Yeah, your co-worker is immature to be posting stuff like that on FB, but you can't be 100% sure if was talking about you since she did it in a passive aggressively way. You have your responsibilities and leave the bitches to bitch.

  • I wouldn't start anything by saying something, but that's just my personality.

    I'm sorry that work is getting rough for you and that your co-workers don't understand/care. But soon you will be will be done. Hang in there and continue doing your best!

  • Unless they flat out call you out I would not even give it any notice.  If they call you out personally about not doing xy or z then take it to your manager or supervisor.  Co-workers, especially if they are ones you are managing (not really clear in your post) should not be reprimanding you - that is for your supervisor only. 




  • What PPs said. Let it slide until they say something directly, then take it up the line.
  • It's not worth even worrying about...their opinions are theirs to own and if they can't appreciate that you're pregnant and cut you a little slack, that's their problem not yours!  Enjoy your pregnancy and focus on the baby rather than work drama...I'm trying to take my own advice and do the same at my job.  Good luck getting through the final days!
