I hate work, my boss is putting pressure on me all the time and don't know what to do, she knows my problems and was starting to be nice, but is going back to her normal self. I think she wants me out, why else what she be like that. I try but nothing is right, or she has to make comments which are not nice. Being there 20 years so I don't know what to do, I don't know if I can do this, But need the job, I like the people I work with but it's just my boss. I can't get signed off unless I tell my parents but I can't at the moment. Don't know what to do and can't see an answer to this.
failure ive been were you are i hated the boss but in the end i went above his head with times dates and incidents of the bosses behaviour ! is there a boss above your immediate bosses to see if they can help ! but in the meantime dont let her think shes getting to you because she will see it as a weakness just smile at her that will p*ss her off just dont say anything to antagonise her ! i wish you all the best stay in touch david !
Hi
Maybe your boss is under pressure aswell
Though it's still not an excuse for the rude
Comments , afterall she knows your problems . I would have kind words with her
And remind her of your situation
Having been in employment for 20years
You've got a leg to stand on as you've
Explained your situation this problem
Lies with your boss and not you
Are you in a union ?
No, I get so nervous around her as I get so upset at the moment, I try so hard, and she just makes comments about time, job or complians about my staff. I'm struggling just to get through work, it's making feel sick just thinking of her
At some point this will need addressing as she will continue
To treat you like this , This will
Eat away at you until things are resolved . Is there someone above her ? I also get the feeling this could lead to you snapping cause I've been in a similar situation there's only so much you can take .
The only thing that is helping me at the moment, is that I having June and July off work, and I won't have to deal with her, the only thing is having to go back, hopefully my tablets will settle down and I can have some good days.
If your boss knows of your illness (or even if she didn't) she is not allowed to bully you like this under The Health and Safety Act. Do you have a boss over her head? You need to keep details of what this woman has said, the date and times and most importantly how it makes you feel. Then take this to her boss and tell them what has been going on.
As long as you have been there over 2 years (I presume you are in the UK) you have legal rights at work.
I have been through this myself and this is my advice. Don't waste time trying to work out why she said whatever or how she is feeling and why but just stick to the facts. Acknowledge as your boss you are aware she can give you orders but you consider what she is doing is unreasonable.
When I did this at work the bigger boss set up mediation between us with him sitting in. We aired a lot of things and it was much better for a while. Unfortunately in my case it started again after a few months and I went off sick. I got a written warning for my non attendance and was finally sacked. But I know karma will get her one day coz it always does! Good luck with it. x
I had a similar experience with my boss. In the end, for my own sake I stepped down from my management role, and returned to a position that meant I do not have to deal with her. I know it ultimately means they get what they want, but sometimes you've got to put yourself first and in the company I work for,( its a family owned and run one where they get the final word), there are no other options really available.
I wish you well.
Just a post mate asking if there's been any
Improvement .
Cheers daz
Yes it's a little better, she is trying hard. Hopefully it will continue.
Gd to hear mate
Just take a day at a time
