Mother Mayhem
Well where to start on this.
There could be the story about my boss, who has given me a project that I've been working on since basically the end of January involving a database that hasn't been updated since for all intents and purposes: 2009. It has to be completely ready and finished for a new overhaul in July (give or take).
on her
She has complained about me non-stop, told me after she had come up with the idea of coming in to our branch once a week to check in and see how we were doing, that she was extremely frustrated with having to come 1-2x a week to hold my hand (WTF?!?!)
She's upset that I try to take initiative for things like coming up with a spreadsheet that shows her a break down of all we have sent out so far by files emailed, files mailed and files faxed out. She says that I'm doing things that are redundant (?) how is that redundant when the instructor from the head organization who trained me said I should do one of these?
She's mad at me that I came up with a cover letter by myself because we needed one for the fax sending out? If she had come up with the letter and what I was to say, should she not have come up with something to cover that too? I mean she's practically a genius and all *rolls eyes*
I tell her that the lady she has seconded to do the data entry since the person who was supposed to was *gasp* not grasping her new job, wasn't helping me and in fact was reduplicating the work I had already done, she tells me that my message wasn't clear only for her to learn that *gasp* what I told her was correct a couple of weeks later.
I tried to tell her due to her instructions that I was to do my regular duties on top of this project, that there was problems with the two people doing switchboard and reception, I was told that I was actually being a bully to the new girl by pointing out what an envelope looked like that she had needed. I told her about a problem with the new girl teaching the second switchboard operator that it was okay to shut the phones completely down so he could do the sick line ... which was something I had never taught *ANY* of the people I trained, she doesn't believe me until it happens a second time and then she emails me to find out what's going on.
So to sum up, I hate my job ... it's making me physically sick and tired. I find my personality changing when I'm at work because I'm hidden away doing this shit. I'm being told that I'm coming across as cranky and that I'm not training people properly. I have never had a problem training anybody until this one. I'm getting fed up and I dont know what to do. I'm thinking that I need to tell the union in case what a co-worker says is true and that my boss is trying to create a file on me.
Then there's my mother.
Who has now joined the ranks of the unemployed and the bitchy as all get out. She says that all the above is my fault because I'm lazy, because I want to cause trouble and so forth. She refuses to listen to me when I say something and then when I try to help her do the unemployment form because she complains she hates my laptop and I can be quicker, she says that we're treating her like an invalid and she might as well just sit on her giant fat ass (her words) and screams at us (dad and me) for daring to ask her why she wouldn't have had gotten her paperwork ready since she had been home all day (and waited until nearly 10 at night when I was ready to go to bed)
I'm just too tired for this shit I think.
