I'm so tired of my boss. He still won't take the time to train me completely and then when I make a mistake he makes me feel bad about it. Yes, I know that I've been here for about 3 weeks and I should probably know how to do stuff here at this job but yet I haven't really been trained. I know he is sick with cancer and I get that. I completely understand not being well and being frustrated about not being well but at the same time there is still things that I have questions about and no one is around to answer them. He has no desire to be here. As I said I get that. He is sick and he doesn't want to be here. He doesn't want to spend whatever time he has left here but if thats the case he needs to sell the business or train me completely or both. I know he is trying to sell the business but he is asking way to much for it. He's asking for $1.2 million for it. And to be honest I don't think he is going to be able to get that for it. Its a small town and not many people have that kind of cash. I just get frustrated with him because he makes me feel bad because I mess up or something. Its just hard.

hang in there maymie... i hope you dont think the job is what your life is all about in any way..

an absent manager sure makes it hard on the employees.. make some of the decisions he's not there to make for yourself? if he complains, that gives you a chance to point out his absenteeism forces you into the role of making decisions which rightfully belong to him...

try to imagine this may not be the only job you'll ever have and use it as an opportunity to learn as much as you can about the business now, so it is of value to you later if needed in a different job...

can you be creative and find some solutions to the routine problems? make standard operating procedures for things that occur regularly?

sounds like he is expecting you to manage it for him.. is the pay adequate for the level of responsibility that is present?.... you dont have to be pushed into harmful situations you dont agree with...
