UPDATE:  Friday 6:45 a.m.

So, as i was getting ready to leave the office last night at 5:30, husband boss asked me to see him.  It's really good cop/bad cop in that office. He said they are "concerned" that I am showing "poor judgement" in decision making.  Then he went on to explain that he has ADD and perhaps I would want to see my doctor and see if maybe I have it, too.  He said meds really help him keep organized.  Yeah, right.  I know I don't have ADD.  I have ABB (A Bitch Boss).  omg.  We have to list everything we do in a day and submit it to them via email.  He said I need to document every message I take on this list.  Use it to  "cover my ass."  Had I listed that I got a call from this client and gave the message to L, wife boss would have seen that or at least could refer back to it.  I should post one of my nightly lists for you guys.  Anybody with half a brain would see that I AM SO FREAKING BUSY during the day that it's no wonder some things fall thru the cracks!  And actually, in my opinion, there really are not too many things that fall thru the cracks.  Wife boss yells if the phone rings more than once.  This job mandates multi-tasking.  What pisses me off most, however, is being yelled at for things that truly aren't my fault and being stabbed in the back.

Any hoo, knowing me, I will just stick it out there for now.  I also told him up until about a month ago, I loved coming to work, find it "exhilarating" but now find it frustrating and I don't even want to go to work some days. 

UPDATE 5:00 a.m.  OR ... do I just suck it up and not let her get to me?  Not give in "to the dark side?"  Kill her with kindness?  Those were my first thoughts as I crawled out of bed this morning.  lol.  Maybe I  just needed another good vent and a good night's sleep?    crap. 


well, I got chewed out again today.  Wife boss starts screaming on messenger 'WHO TOOK A CALL FROM *** IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS AND DIDN'T TELL ME?" Yikes.  I remember the client as I did the initial intake back in April and of course being one of the primary phone answerers, I've spoken with her a few times.  I scrambled to check my notes and yes, I talked to her on 7/19.  She had called for my coworker, L, and I wrote up a phone message. I keep a spiral notebook to log every call and note who the calls are from, who for, what they want and if/when I write up the phone message (as applicable) I put a check mark in the spiral notebook - otherwise I draw a circle and check mark when I've done whatever I need to do.  And sure enough, in my message book is the carbon.  Well, coworker L says she never got the message so it's back to being my fault. And boy did I get chewed out.  I was asked why didn't I tell wife boss?  My answer:  Because the client asked specifically for L.  Now the husband boss wants to talk with me but we didn't get a chance to do so today. 

I was upset this past weekend over an incident I got chewed out on for which I feel I did nothing wrong. And I vented here about that. I was so pissed then I was shaking but today I just feel despair. A heavy, hollow feeling in my chest.  Friday is payday and if I'm gonna do something drastic like LEAVE I probably should do it after I get my paycheck.  I'm gonna ask my two supervisors at my parttime weekend job if there is enough work there to sustain me full time again BEFORE I ask that clueless boss for full time work again.  Sheez.  Seems I can't win for losing right now.  But I'm home from work and just feel this heaviness in my chest.  If it wasn't for that wife bioch boss I'd love that job.  Even with her, I've been able to handle it but today - well, I almost feel it's the beginning of the end for me.  I'm so used to being happy and stress free that when I get upset like this it really throws me for a loop!  ugh.

Thanks once again ladies for listening.

Hope you find those two more drs. and not have to stay there. I know what it is like having to mull over staying or leaving. I ended up having to leave because the atmosphere was just toxic. It prevented me from doing my job the way I felt I had to. Ended up with a bit less than half the pay, but feeling loads better for it!

I agree, options are great and so is this group.

I would be looking for another job if it were me.

I know.  I think just about anyone else would have walked out already.  lol.  But I think I'll be fine - for now. 

However, if I am able to score at least 2 new doctors, I will so quit that job and go back to working at home.  I know the medical transcription company that I am working part-time on weekends will have me back full time if need be.  Always nice to have options!    and MWAK to vent!
