i posted the other day about my coworker and boss having a conflict.
i work for a very small company. no hr. i have two bosses (a married couple) and two coworkers, one i have become close with and another that is a long time family friend of my bosses.
the company is a property management company. i am the leasing agent/office manager. this is not the job i want to be doing at all (against my morals), but this is the first place i was hired when i lost my job during the pandemic. i have actively been looking for another job since july and trying to get out of the industry but have not been able to get past first interviews. my boss is the property manager and he is an employee of the building owner.
last week at work was the worst i’ve ever had. i came home from work on thursday, had a two hour panic attack and called out friday (for my mental health). my boss texted me 9 times during my sick day, all matters that were not urgent or my coworkers had the answer to.
i was very depressed all weekend and felt extremely hopeless. on sunday afternoon, i was trying to enjoy a bike ride with my boyfriend when my boss texted me to ask my coworker something the following day. i was livid. not only did he ruin my entire weekend but this text was completely unnecessary. #1 it could have waited till monday #2 he could have directly asked my coworker himself.
since monday, i began to write down everything that has gone wrong (all to the fault of my boss) the previous week. i since have started documenting every lie, case of mismanagement, and negligence for residents that have happened since i was hired 2.5 years ago. i have filled up 5 pages so far and i haven’t finished yet. i can post these of there is interest. i don’t really know what to do with these since we don’t have an hr.
my boss has repeatedly shown that he is either incompetent or doesn’t give a shit (probably both), and the building owner is completely in the dark. i have been taken advantage of for 2.5 years and i am at my wits end. i have had several mental breakdowns because of this job. i am continuing to apply and interview elsewhere to keep my hope alive.
thank you for reading
