[QUOTE="DDD, post: 409168, member: 35"] I once had a boss who literally gave me instructions, then when I followed them berated me for what I had done and gave me new instructions. Then...after a couple of days a conflicting set. It really was unbelievably stressful and since I was the sole support for my Mom and my three children I tried to grin and bear it. One morning I walked into my office and my equipment was all missing, my boss had flown off to Boston for the weekend and had the VP tell me that Boss had fired me. That was one of my biggest life crisis times. Totally undermined my confidence, made me feel like a loser and made me determined never to have a boss again. I relate to your discomfort. I would not suggest recording him as I think it could come back and bite you. I would suggest, however, starting a journal that records the events of the day. It might be helpful later. It may not be. It can't hurt anything, however, to have it safely at home. Sorry it's so hard. DDD [/QUOTE]
