As I have said before, I work for two different people. Working for them has by no means been a walk in the park. One of my bosses is pretty easy to work with but the other seems to always change up the rules of the game whenever it suits him. I have tried so hard over the past couple of months to take my life back. One boss seems to forget that I work for him but that doesn't mean he owns my life. He and I fight all of the time about the fact that the tenants calls me at all hours in the day and night or just come on over when ever the mood strikes them. They all seem to think (including him), that I have nothing better to do then sit around and wait for them to cal or just drop by. Now when I started back to work for him, the agreement was that this job was to be by my schedule. I was helping him out and at the same time, I was keeping busy. Little did I know that it would turn into feeling like I had sold my soul to the devil. Lately, things have been getting to the point that this job is way out of hand. The rules were, no calls before ten a.m., this allows me time to wake up and get my son cared for, (breakfast, shower,etc,). No calls after 7 p.m., this allows me to care for my husband when he's home and make dinner for my son. Also, it gives me time to do other things like relax before I have to set things up for the next day. In the mean time I have things to do like laundry, cleaning my house and a silly little thing like grocery shopping. Who needs to do that, right? Anyways, there was also to be no weekends. This is my time to catch up on things I didn't get done during the week and most importantly, it's my time with my family. It's pretty basic. This was supposed to be a part time job only, not a life altering endeaver.

So far this past two weeks I've had tenants call me at 7 a.m.. I have had at least 5 tenants just drop by, most of which either came by around 8:30 p.m. or on Saturdays. But! The worst was last night. My boss not only called me three times last night but he actually stopped by to have me write up 2 eviction notices and of course he couldn't figure out why I was pissed. It was Sunday for goodness sakes. This crap has to stop or he'll be looking for someone else to push around. I know he's already thought about replacing me because he doesn't like the fact that I am not intimidated by him. He yells at me and I yell right back. I don't take his crap and he knows it. Now I have to figure out how to get the rest of this crap back under control. I like my job but not enough to be at his or the tenants beck and call 24-7. Truth is enough is enough! Time for things to change.
