So I am torn a little between feeling loved and flattered and just annoyed. Leaning toward loved and flatter, but still a bit annoyed. I recently got a PT job, and even more recently discovered I am expecting. Not feeling well and getting next to no sleep, I decided I wanted to be a SAHM again. So I gave my boss a written 2 weeks notice last night. When I went in to work today, she informed me request was denied! "Sorry, you can't quit" She totally chopped my schedule down to about 10 -15 hrs a week. And she finally agreed that when I get big and fat I get to leave. I told her, "I didn't mean I was gonna just leave, I would wait until you found someone to replace me" so she looks at me and says 'sweetie, you aren't replaceable" this is where I felt loved. I did kind of just want to quit cause I am so tired, but she is really working hard so I can take it easy and be home to put my kids to bed at night. I used to work from 2pm-12am, but now it's just 2pm-7pm. She hired someone today, and I have the next 5 days off, she was all " will that do you for now?" She's really a great boss, we all women most of us with kids and she's great about scheduling around things like birthdays, swim lessons, and tumbling class. So I guess I can't complain too much. If I really wanted to leave I could, she just REALLY doesn't want me to.
