How would you guys deal with a boss that is constantly treating you with disrespect and demeaning you in front of people? I've put in some applications at other places today but in the meantime, what do you suggest? Boss is forcing me to work from home (fine) and is going to use it as an excuse to lower my pay (fuck him). A pervious employee went to the FBI because he was selling the samples we are supposed to give out (fraud) but nothing ever came of it.
Thats my plan, currently looking for something else. Wish I had gone to trade school. Might try and get a CDL.
I'm trying to ignore them. Been doing that for years now. This job has destroyed my optimism. My dream has become winning the lottery and being alone at home forever. A younger me would rather be dead than this.
hah, needed a laugh. I like everyone but the boss. Sometimes I feel bad for him but regardless of why he's shitty, he still should be held accountable. I feel like God has forgotten about me.
Thanks anon. I have plenty I should be grateful for, but everything is so easy to rip away. No matter how far I come I'm always right on the cusp of everything falling apart. I know the current economy was basically designed to be this way, but its extra hard because I have no safety nets. If I died I have maybe two friends who would care.
haha I've heard of people doing that. He'd know it was me. I don't want revenge anyway, I just want him to fuck off and leave me alone. I'd love this job if he would just stay the fuck away from me.
Thanks anon. I've got some limiting factors. If I could do anything I wanted I'd be a farmer. I've got some health problems that ultimately shouldn't matter but the medicine I take negates any law/government stuff. Realistically, I don't know what I would want to do. I feel like the guy in Office Space. I just want to win the lottery and never work again. Or do fun things like have animals (goats and cows) for work. I live on some land and it isn't out of the realm of possibility, but I lack the heavy equipment and money to get something like that going in a meaningful (financial) way. I've just been so beaten down the last few years I've lost all interest in the stuff I used to love. I used to want to have a family too, but I'm so far at the bottom I don't think that will ever happen. I've been my companies whipping boy for about 6 years now, even though I do most of the stuff nobody else can. I wouldn't even mind being so underpaid if I was treated with some minimal respect. I've worked in factories plenty, any honestly I'd work on an assembly line and be happy if it meant I could pay all the bills.
