Thanks Kath, I helps to know there's someone out there pulling for me.
When I came back to work monday, my boss made out a schedule of deadlines for this week that included both last week's work as well as this week's. I worked 9 hours Monday and 7AM-8PM today. Of course I did not finish what I was supposed to by the end of the day. When I was leaving at 8, she proceeded to tell me she wouldn't stop me from leaving, but I just better know I haven't made a deadline yet [since she wrote me up]. I told her I was out an entire week last week. She said she didn't care about last week this was deadlines for this week. I said but they are all the same deadlines! Its just that last week I had a week to finish a project, while this week I had a day!
The thing about it is, our department has deadlines of when things go to the printer or have to be posted online, and these are not the deadlines she's referring to. She's talking about these micromanaged schedules that she makes out that are impossible to meet.
She said all this in front of a guy I work with too. I finally just said, okay, I'm going.
I called a coworker who had given me her home phone number because she was concerned about me and said she had seen my boss watching us at work when we talk. She's very supportive and says its obvious my boss is trying to set me up. I feel bad because all I ever do is vent to her.
So I came home and I called the phone number you're supposed to call when you think something unethical is going on at work. I had called before and got a list of therapists, and I had contacted them by email also to explain the situation with my boss. Today I just added to everything that has happened and said I don't even know if I can make myself go to work tomorrow. I just don't know if I can do it! It was hell just making myself stay there all day! I'm actually beginning to wonder now that even if I did get another job, would I be able to do it?! I feel like a basket case.
I'm sorry, that's all I can write for now. I'll check back in though.
