Oh geez...
...where do I start? Well, after that email, all HELL broke loose.
And to be honest, I just wrote an incredibly long post detailing it all, and it somehow got erased. Damn!
Suffice it to say that my boss screamed and yelled for about thirty minutes. I freaked out; partially because I so totally wasn't expecting it, partially because I had no idea she had such contempt for me, and partially because I couldn't believe how much her tongue lashing made me feel like I was 3 years old all over again, getting screamed at by the Drunk.
Anyway, after about forty minutes of yelling (on her part) and disputing (on my part), she said she wanted to meet again on Tuesday (duh--isn't that what I suggested in the first place?) to further discuss.
Let's jump right to it, then, shall we?
Worst case scenario--I get fired. This would be bad because Husband and I might not be able to pay mortgage if I didn't find work right away.
Best case scenario--depends on my mood. It'd be good if my other supervisor (complicated work situation...) came to the meeting and was able to see how crazy Boss is. But really, I also think it would be kind of a good thing if I got fired--that way I'd have to find new work and I wouldn't be forced to show up to that freak show of an office for one more day.
Here's my resolution--I'm fucking outta there. Regardless of what happens during this meeting, I will:
1. defend myself. I haven't done anything wrong and she knows it.
2. Be honest. If she actually finds something to criticize that has an ounce of validity, I can learn from it.
3. Get a new job pronto. It could be substitute teaching and waitressing, or something more permanent. But by the end of January, I WILL be working near my home making comparable money. MARK. MY. WORDS.
4. Stop giving her any kind of power over me. Because I know I'm leaving, all I have to do is survive. She can yell and scream, rant and rave. Hell, she could implode for all I care (although I would really like to see that...). The only thing that matters is that I'm just about outta there. So from here on out, I show up, do my work, go home. And that's it.
Ahhh, getting all that out such a relief!
