So yeah I quit. After months of not having a job, and trying to go back into the workforce I was belittled and made to feel like absolute crap.

Other than my boss completely rushing me, being haphazard and totally disorganized he actually brought up my resume during a confrontation saying "well it was on your resume so you should know this."

Mind you, he is doing payroll for tax purposes handwritten! And his handwriting is atrocious. It took me an hour to understand his handwriting (plus his math was wrong), and he criticized me for taking so long. "Well I have been doing this for 47 years and it only takes me 15 minutes" I felt like telling him "then do it yourself then!!" Seriously if it takes him 15 minutes then why is he giving it to me?

He's an old frustrated man whose business is failing, and honestly he didn't want me to touch the computer, wanted me to handwrite everything, call up places and do a million different things. I had just gotten over my tremors so I had to relearn to write (bipolar and med related), so yeah, I am slower than most people now.

Anyway, I just sent my resignation letter and basically let him have it. There have been literally 15 secretaries before me, so I gotta think to myself it can't be me. I am surprised if he still stays in business.

So rant over. I guess I am trying my best to not beat myself up and tell myself I am a failure.

Thanks for listening.
