Hi, I’m back on this forum about three weeks after my last post to post about this nightmare job again. This is really the only place I feel safe talking about it because everyone else basically tells me to suck it up and that I’ll get used to it and that this is how the career field is. But I feel like I need someone to know whats going on.

I work for a small company. The two co-founders and me. There are other contractors who come in M-F but they work in a different room and are pretty separate from us. One of my bosses is great (the one who hired me) the others a nightmare.

1. He doesn’t let me use the restroom closest to my office. I have to use the other one because the one closest to me is the “employee bathroom” but he, the other owner, and the owners kids use the one closest to me all the time. I’m the only one not allowed.
2. I was on my phone in the office (taking a 15 as my boss said I was allowed to whenever I wanted), my other boss comes in and says “are you always on your phone? Every time I come in here you’re on it”. It’s literally happened one other time.
Plus there’s the situation I already wrote about. This is draining me so much but I feel like I have to stay at least 6 months to a year to put it on my resume. I know it’s not as bad as some peoples situations where there is really abuse but it’s still hard to go through every day as someone with a mental illness and low self esteem.

Insensitive and mean-spirited bosses . . . that is something I am quite familiar with from unhappy personal experience. My heart goes out to you! Sorry I don't know what to say that would help make things better for you.
