[QUOTE="Star*, post: 177585, member: 4964"] I guess this applies to your story - (the illogical thinking of these people does anyway) I lived in a house with Dude and across the street were 2 little girls (twins) and a boy. We've remained in semi-contact and do the "catch-up" thing whenever we run across each other. I loved those little girls - there Mom is schizophrenic and my house was a Snack/craft/play time emporium for them and their brother who was Dudes playmate. Over the course of 12 years or so - one has had a child is addicted to drugs, the other had a child and is now working in a BBQ restaurant. I ran into the one at the BBQ restaurant and she told me how she had "plans" to be the MGR. She's had her sister or her sisters friends come in the restaurant and give the manager such a hard time that she's fired back at them and then they call corporate. THIS was HER PLAN to get the Manager's job because she needed more money for her and her son to live on. She told me in detail how they systematically worked their way up the ladder on getting people fired and she was PROUD to tell me she will be manager in a month - to come and see her, she'll give me free food. I've never been so dissapointed in my life - and while little shocks me - the level of manipulation in her life - reminded me of what you described in yours. The false allegations, the words...the stress these other people must have been under to quit and allow this girl to "climb" to the top. Steely - you have so many talents- you're a gifted person, you're kind, you're warm and you are smart. So many others here have told you - move on. Find something else. If it's resume help you need? I'll help. I promise. But I really think you should start with the paper - or local craigslist and GET out of there. THOSE PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE ANY RIGHT AT ALL TO CAUSE YOU STRESS. THEY HAVE NO RIGHT to MAKE YOU FEEL INADEQUATE.....and every day you are there? You give them more reasons to treat you like a door mat. It's hard to even motivate yourself to look for something - and the job market isn't screaming for new people - BUT YOU CAN DO THIS. YOU CAN better yourself, your life and THIS IS SOMETHING YOU CAN CONTROL - HOW those people treat you isn't in your control. HOW YOU ALLOW THEM to treat you IS. And by that I mean you DO have the POWER and ABILITY and BRAINS to get out and look for a new job. You don't owe them even a notice as far as I'm concerned - maybe a week to let your new employer know you are considerate. NOW GET OUT THERE AND JOB SEARCH - SOMETHING and SOMEONE will ABSOLUTELY TREAT YOU BETTER the MOMENT YOU BEING TO DEMAND RESPECT...... [/QUOTE]
