My boss called me this morning to let me know she won’t be there when I get in at 1 PM. She also called to asked me if anything was wrong because I have been acting differently… I pretty much broke down and told her that yeah something is wrong, it’s her. The way she addresses me, the frequency of how she talks down to me and how I just feel like I’m not doing anything right. I know I do my job decently (always room to learn and grow), I don’t cut corners and I get all the background work done for everyone else (which seems to go unnoticed).
I don’t necessarily need this job, although it’s the highest paid job I’ve ever gotten. We talked about setting up a meeting with her supervisor, the president of the company but to be honest I don’t think any change will come of it because of their closeness, the fact that I am four months new and I can’t describe the feeling I get very well out loud.
I can feel my blood boil when she starts to talk to me, and in turn it does affect my mood at work and the way I respond to her as much as I try not to. But I don’t have a problem with any other coworker, it’s just her. I feel like I have no respect for her. The way she talks to our clients is rude, she has no communication skills whatsoever and it makes it so difficult to keep a smile on my face at work.
I can wait for this meeting and try to describe how I’m feeling but honestly it’s just going to sound like I’m complaining about my boss the whole time, and then what I have to go work the rest of the day and weeks and months right next to her office?
This is an at-will company so I could literally leave today, no notice. I don’t think I would feel guilty at all, except to myself because I really do like this job, and I’m really proud to have it.
Reddit, please help. I need to figure this out so I can stop stressing and crying.
Sorry for format, of course I’m in my phone.
