[QUOTE="Star*, post: 113261, member: 4964"] In my life - I have worked for some REAL dysfunctional SOB's. One drank and cheated on his wife, and flirted openly. Another was educated and high functioning alcoholic, but so pedantic it was pathetic. OMG!!! I told this man I had to take a day off (my first in 7 years of timely service) for an MRI because the doctor thought I had a brain tumor. This man stomped his foot, twisted it in a half circle, made a face and said "Will you be back the same day? You can schedule your appointments early around 5:00 AM." (I thought he was inhuman after that) and when I heard the F word it wasn't like I had virginal ears - It's just it was delivered and directed TO ME, through gritted teeth. I left, and apparently don't remember but slammed the door so hard people 4 offices away felt it. WHAT A JERK. I didn't quit - but I made it clear THAT DAY how I would and would NOT be treated. I worked in construction with 22 men for 2 years doing infrastructure and running heavy equipment and was treated just fine. Now I work for a man after 29 years of working for people - and therapy - and I KNOW what I am worth, I KNOW what I will tolerate, I KNOW HOW a boss can and should be and I know that if I am treated ANY LESS ? I can pack up my toys and go home. And ...I will. You will make it David - And when you find that better job - you'll be glad you left. Yeah - being cursed and sworn at would last about [] long with me too. Good on ya man! Gosh what a person to be pitied that thinks that is a way to behave in a work place. Star [/QUOTE]
