Thanks for the encouragement, Jeff. You were in a similar situation? Whereby a boss wanted to push you out? How did you handle it? DId you decide to leave the job?

It IS horrendous. Yesterday though a step was taken. I spoke again about it with my boss's boss. Let's say his name is Ales. Alex will now speak with his boss, let's say his boss is named Chris. So Alex is going to speak with Chris about the issues I face with my boss. Let's say my boss's name is Amy. I asked Alex if there can be a different reporting structure. I hope Alex brings this question to Chris.

Amy was just as awful to me yesterday - once again, shmoozing with my co-workers and so blatantly not with me.

I am now also very sick with a sinus infection and had to spend an hour at urgent care last night after work, followed by 45 minutes at the pharmacy. I had to buy $100 worth of medicine to treat the infection. I didn't have that kind of extra money, so I had to charge it to a credit card. UGH! So I came home completely wiped out and could not for the life of me begin prepping for my interview.

it's going to be last minute prepping, which I hate. But, a higher paying job would be most beneficial right now, on top of leaving my horrid boss and situation at work.
