Antiwork

I f*cking hate my boss. Like I hate the man. He degrades, belittles, mocks and blames me for everything that goes wrong. But I can’t find another job as of 2 months of searching. I’m so angry. I think I might have PTSD from this place.

Long story short- I’ve worked here for 9 months. In my role for about 4 now. I spent the entire time so far fixing mistakes from the last person, but my job is for 2 people- in one. Every day I get more and more behind because I can’t keep up, and anytime I mention this to him, he makes it about my lack of work ethic. I’m working overtime currently and not being paid. He also punishes me for that too. If I try to stay late after work or work on the weekend (unpaid I might add) he says that is a lack of my time management. But the last 3 people who did my job quit due to stress. At this point he no longer speaks to me, no longer asks about my day, we have no cordial conversations except when he’s belittling me. (He mocks me…


Long story short-

I’ve worked here for 9 months. In my role for about 4 now. I spent the entire time so far fixing mistakes from the last person, but my job is for 2 people- in one. Every day I get more and more behind because I can’t keep up, and anytime I mention this to him, he makes it about my lack of work ethic. I’m working overtime currently and not being paid. He also punishes me for that too. If I try to stay late after work or work on the weekend (unpaid I might add) he says that is a lack of my time management. But the last 3 people who did my job quit due to stress.

At this point he no longer speaks to me, no longer asks about my day, we have no cordial conversations except when he’s belittling me. (He mocks me sometimes if I ask a question he thinks is stupid) or he constantly will come at me with how what I’ve done has effected other peoples jobs- though he gave me a job I wasn’t qualified for and is now blaming me because I couldn’t hack it. He’s completely used me as a scapegoat to the point where my colleagues won’t even email me anymore they go through him because they think I’m incompetent and he will then email me to get it done. It’s at the point now where he is using me as an example of “what not to do” to the new staff right infront of me.

I feel so helpless and worthless. I work the hardest out of my team and I work extra hours to keep up and he actually gets angry at me for it. So you understand- in 3 days I received over 500 emails. and these are not things I can just answer right away. It’s things I need to do work and contact people to find information for. It can take almost an hour or more per inquiry. this is my day to day.

That’s not even the extent of it. HR had to get involved because of bullying against me in the office, and he wouldn’t stick up for me though they admitted to doing it. I’m honestly so exhausted my health is taking a toll. I barely eat, I don’t enjoy my time off, I can’t shower or brush my teeth most days, I feel like a shell of a human being. But I’ve been applying for months and not even a bite. I could walk away and get just a minimum wage job, but then I’d be out about 25k a year that I’m making now above that…… I feel like I’ve been squeezed into a place I can’t run from. I brought this all up to HR but they just quit so now I’m afraid to approach the new one as I don’t know how they will handle it.

At this point I’m just waiting to be fired. If you’ve read this far- thanks

I don’t have anyone to speak to about this. So this was nice.
