Hey all! Won't my T be surprised on Friday when I tell him I resigned at work today...see what 18 days between sessions does for me? Giggle.

In all seriousness, after three years of abusive behavior by her, lack of goals or a vision, virtually no support, guidance, direction etc. I'm done...

The sad part is I had a great talk with the VP of our area and he was shocked. He said he had just given me a great raise. He asked to talk to me directly and I laid it all out for him. He doesn't want to lose me and I don't want to go. I just can't be around her anymore...we'll see if today's discussion leads anywhere but I won't get my hopes up.

Okay, off to check the posts here. I can't be on much during the day right now for obvious reasons...but I'm thinking of everyone!

I hope it works out for you and they find a way for you to stay and not have to work with her. You deserve to be treated well, whether it's there or somewhere else.

Wow, it sounds like they want you to stay. I hope that they can find you a place away from her and one you'll like. Let us know.

I'm sorry you have to leave when you don't really want to. Is there another place for you at the company away from your boss? Maybe this VP could help you with that?

Thanks everyone Resigned today...

I checked our job postings out but I don't see anything I'd like. I want to stay with this group minus my boss.

She is running around here complaining about me and it's funny because they all interrupted her to talk about throwing me a goodbye party...I'm lovin'that...

Who knows something could work out down the line.

Thought you were going to talk to someone in higher management?

Hey SG, I talked to the VP of my area and felt good yesterday. I'm trying to talk with HR but she keeps putting me off.

I don't know why, she and I have gotten along very well in the past when we've worked on fraud issues together. I see her though Friday at 2:00. I called on her about my boss about a year and a half ago and she jumped on it.

I never know what is behind door #4

Hey, I've missed you. Not sure whether to say 'good for you' or 'I'm sorry this happened.' So... I wish you a little of both. Keep us updated!
