My Monday was an ordeal. How was yours?

[lar_laughs]

I opened up this post to complain about my job. Not the customers this time. No, my bosses this time. First time I've ever really had a problem with them. Pretty much the first time that they've had trouble with me. At least that I know of. The problem is that I wouldn't have really known they were having a problem with me but for three things.

1) The boss (H) I work with on a daily basis was a bit more passive-aggressive with me than normal today.
2) I got an immediate bad feeling about the whole atmosphere that I couldn't shake.
3) R finally broke down and told me after H left what she had been told. Did they take the time to tell me what I'd done? No. But they did tell her.

The problem all stems to the moment two, almost three, years ago when I begged to be given more paperwork. That was the moment I became The Insurance Girl. So this $1600 error really is my fault because I wanted to file more often. Never mind that it could have happened to anyone. I'm just convenient. And I'm Insurance Girl. I get paid a pittance (comparatively) to take responsibility for ALL the mistakes we make, it appears.

And you know why this started today of all days?

H and R decided they would take it upon themselves to order enough stock from a certain company so that we got a free Wii and they wanted to give it to me.

But they had to run it past the big boss... after we had gotten it... and after they told me about this.

My sins were drug out for me to pay for.

And I'm not getting the Wii because they decided that someone else would get it.

I wish now they just hadn't been nice in the first place. The status quo was a nice place to be.

I would tell them where to shove this job but there isn't many other places to work at in this smaller valley and I'm not keen to move just yet. And, truth be told, it scares me to move again.

The bright side of all this? I don't eat when I'm upset and I haven't eaten much of anything today. Hooray for a forced diet plan!

Bosses are weird when they're friendly to you... and then they go into "powered up" mode unexpectedly.

Not fun. I'm glad, as much as one can be 'glad', that you had a sort of intuitive heads-up. Not fun, but I hope it lets you guard yourself a little more intentionally.

And seriously? Ungiving the Wii? lame. *shakes head*

IKR!!!! And I will definitely be more guarded. I don't need a life if it means putting up with this! And I most definitely don't need a Wii that badly.
