Huge rant
Finally got a job offer overseas. I've always wanted to live here so I was thrilled when I was offered this role.
The other person my employer hired didn't work out so they put a rush on my work permit and within a week I moved. Packed up all my things and left my country. I've been at my job for 4 days now and on the third day my employer threatened to let me go. She told me we both wasted money and asked what I thought this job would entail. I thought it would entail what we discussed but no, she wants one person to do 4 jobs and for a low wage.
I was given my duties and responsibilities prior and was fine with them. There's always a learning curve to a job. My boss showed me how to do things I never agreed nor was told I would be doing. So of course I'm struggling with it and have lost the desire to even stay here. Instead of training me yesterday, she got a manicure and got drunk. My coworkers have been amazing and are helping me out. Now my boss leaves on Sunday for a few weeks of vacation.
I was hired for one position but she really needs a a manager and hr person. She expects me to take on the responsibility of both those jobs and then some. I don't even know about payroll and never list it in my resume.
I'm so upset, my anxiety is through the roof. I'm not sleeping well. I might get fired today. Then what? I have to get a release form from her and hope I can secure another job. My savings will go down the drain. I hope she keeps me for the 3 weeks so I can make money and quit right before she gets back.
All the employees have told me she's a shitty person and boss. I should have known when the same position I was applying for kept popping up every few months.
I could have stayed in my home country and secured (eventually) a well paying career. I'm so upset. I hope I can make this work. End rant
