Update from my last post a few weeks ago. The bullying from my boss has only gotten worse and I am more isolated than ever in my office. My vacation time got denied with no apology or remorse, which is my final straw.
I know that my sound ridiculous, but it felt personal especially given my recent history with my boss. This is my annual trip with my father that I’ve been taking for several decades, and every year since I started working at my current job.
My friend and co-worker overheard my boss talking to the finance department about how it was “disrespectful and noncommittal” of me to ask for time off. It should be said that I asked if I could work remotely on vacation rather than take time off and she said no.
I’m freaking out and I’m so afraid of the repercussions, but I work too hard on my mental health for a job to undo my hard work.
