She sends demeaning emails to me, constantly being negative, constantly pointing out my mistakes (which I don’t make in a more relaxed environment) and even after I fix my error she will keep emailing me demanding an answer, and continuing to point out my mistakes. Negative, negative, negative. Not one positive thing comes out of her mouth. The long term goal is to either A) transfer or B) find a new job and resign. I’m not getting any younger, so I need to figure this out quickly. I am experiencing other health issues I never had before. Acid reflux, etc. Last night, I couldn’t keep anything down and I couldn’t get to sleep until after 3 am..bad stomach pain and my stomach was in knots...woke up to yet another email...Currently, I’m one week at home, one week at the office, but that won’t last forever. I’m working on getting an accommodation to work partly from home once it goes back to F/T In the office...I am constantly walking on eggshells. Her constant pushing buttons makes me forgetful, unable to concentrate, etc. Life is too short to be unhappy

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this and i have to say i know 110% where youre coming from. Take it from me... RUN. It will only get worse. Believe me, I was at this company for a decent amount of years and it only got worse. Didn’t matter if i texted, called, emailed, wrote a letter, sat face to face with management, they continued to take advantage of me. But i stayed because i needed the money and i wanted to give back to the community. And towards the end i started taking days off to experiment with a shorter schedule, id eventually change my availability so i worked less days/ hours and let me tell you. It didnt matter a bit. Because the days that i WAS there, it was still hell. Still being harassed, still have double the workload. And id spend my whole week anticipating the drama and my anxiety went through the roof. I started getting paranoid that I would do something wrong or even harmful! All because i was constantly told i was doing something wrong even if i wasnt and always asked to do more. Basically, it led to physical, mental, and emotional burn out. Finally i just had it. And i quit. I havent worked there in over a month and I am still struggling. The mental damage they did to me over the years is my own fault for sticking around but it’s not easier quite yet. I still have anxiety. I still am paranoid over things i never used to be. I do see a professional and she says itll just take time to heal.... i now need to build my confidence up all over again, my self esteem, etc. so I’m telling you. If you are okay financially, if you can find another job. DO IT. Because if it didnt get better before or they wont listen to you, it will only get worse and it is NOT worth it. I wish someone would’ve just pulled me out of there yrs ago and said no, you’re bot working here anymore.
