Please excuse me while I have a behavior.

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!



I hate people. I hate people who treat me like a moron. I hate people who treat me like I'm the same person I was 3 years ago. I hate people who assume the worst of me. I hate people who try to finagle things to make me look bad.

I told my boss about all of this and asked if 1) I had the right to defend myself in this situation and 2) What I could do about it. He said I needed to get territorial. When the end of this situation went down (it was something very simple and stupid), my boss looked at me and said, "How did she get this idea in her head?" and called someone else involved in the situation who said it was being blown out of proportion.

While I was writing the above paragraph, a coworker called me and asked if I did something. When I told her no, that I thought she was, she said, "K thanks bye." That's this individual's way of thinking I f**ked up.

I'm not going to work in a hostile environment. I'm not.

Chopin.....

Don't let them get your goat..... breathe and handle this from a responsible non emotion driven managerial place. Make an example out of one and the rest will get the hint.
Thanks for this!

I hope you can see this as an exciting challenge....even though it's grueling, I'd imagine your own personal reward can be valuable by working through this.

Thanks, granite.....It certainly is challenging and helpful. When just hearing about the experiences, it actually looks quite painful...and it is....but the growth that comes from it can be amazing - if one chooses to find the value in it. One could just as easily say, screw it and run for the hills...which I've wanted to do MANY times. LOL

I just offical stepped down from the worship team at our church.. Its been a long time coming, but it is still bitter sweet. I have a feeling my pastor and his wife will want to talk to me in depth about it, but my plan is to say no thanks. oh well..

Home from work, lunch eaten.. I think we are going to bring the dog for a walk and enjoy the very unseasonably warm weather.

Well I have had to do that exact same thing before, sometimes we need to dump something in order to make room on our plate and I hope that extra room is for you and your needs.

Hi All,
T this morning was amazing. She was so supportive. She told me I could call if I ever get in a really bad place and also that I should call her after my appointment on Thursday to let her know what is going on. She had a Christmas tree up in her office but I didn't notice any other things. I was kind of focused on the discussion today.

Healed - I've had to step down from things at church too. Sometimes it is necessary to do what is best for you. My pastor was disappointed, but he understood why I needed to step back for awhile.

Chopin You know you are not who you were 3 years ago and that is what really matters.

Granite - hope your furniture gets there soon.

Hi everyone else. I'm at work and better get my rear in gear so I don't have to stay late.

The kids and the puppy and myself went for a two mile walk.. the kids are tired my plan worked. Now, my plan is to get them down for naps, and take a nap for myself and hopefully clean afterwards.

And to thank me for taking him for a walk, my puppy just threw up on me.. nice.

I had T today. No holiday decorations but some new nick-nacks that he has added.
Also sadly the only one with acne in the room was me Stupid stress and hormones. My skin has always been pretty not great, since I was on hormones and stuff for infertility though it has gotten worse. Ugh!!! I have the skin of a teenager...with wrinkles. Not Fair! LOL

Anyway, it was a calm session where he tried to keep me focused on the positives in my life and point out areas where I have grown. Kind of nice actually.

In the outer office, there was a Christmas type mug with candy canes in it. That was it for holiday stuff.
