I edited my post...
I probably should've just started a new post. But I really feel like my angry post wasn't necessary at all. When I wrote it, I was in the mad/sad stage of finding out bad news. You know how they say there are stages to getting bad news. First one is sadness, second is anger, third is revenge and forth is acceptance. Maybe not in that order, but that's how it happened for me.
I know that I was wrongly fired. I can't really explain it in a short story and I know some of you will still think that because I got fired it was all my fault. But honestly my boss had it against me from the very beginning. She hated the fact that I stopped working 5 days a week to go to Grooming School. Then she fell in love with Racheal just a week or so before I started working there. Ever since then, any little thing I do she yells at me for. I know I've explained a lot of things in previous posts about how I wasn't respected at Doggy Daycare and Spa and I'm honestly glad now that my work there is done. I'm sad that I wont be able to see the dogs there again. I love some of them. They're the reason I kept my job there for so long. But I'm relieved that I no longer have to put up with a boss who doesn't respect a single thing I do. I could say the same thing Racheal said, just different wording, and she would turn it into I was wrong and Racheal was right. There's not anything I could've done to change that.
Today on my way to work I had this HORRIBLE puking feeling in my stomach. Sure enough right as I walked in the door, she bombarded me with things I did wrong last week. On Friday I groomed a Golden Retriever, it was her first day at Daycare so I specifically did not cut her nails because all of the daycare grounds are concrete and if you cut a dogs nails they just end up wearing down and bleeding all over the place. But I was yelled at for it.
But then on top of that Janice struck a low that I couldn't even believe she had gone to. She accused me of not grooming several dogs paws (pads and hair between their toes) on Thursday. Now you have to understand that on Thursday I had 11 dogs... in 6 hours. Four of them were Golden Retrievers who grow hair between their toes and around the pads of their feet. I vividly remember doing each dogs feet because they were ALL pains in the ass for their feet. Pulling every which way and not wanting me to even touch their feet. (I swear dogs think we're going to cut their toes off the minute we grab their feet). Anyways, I remember doing each dogs paws and I remember I was very impressed with myself for doing everything right and being able to actually get the 11 dogs done in 6 hours. So I know that I did do them and then she accuses me of not doing them. Which is bullshit. She's been looking for a way to get me out of Doggy Daycare and Spa and because she had one thing on me where I didn't cut a dogs nails, she made up other things for it to sound more important. She's a horrible boss and I only hope she gets what's coming to her.
Now I have quite a few things on her that I could tell everyone. But I'm choosing to be the bigger person and just let it go. Now that it's been awhile. I'm glad that I'm not working there. I was miserable, not respected and even though I had gone through just as much schooling as Racheal, I was not taken seriously. I'm glad that I now have all the time in the world to find a better job.
On a side note, some of my moms friends from Midway are going to call up to Doggy Daycare and ask to have their dog groomed with me and then deny services once they say I don't work there anymore. Which I didn't tell them to do, but they insist on doing anyways. I'm sure once my regulars from Doggy Daycare find out I'm not working there anymore, they won't go there anymore either. It's really tough luck for Janice because Racheal is moving to Detroit soon and says she's going to commute Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but really I doubt her commuting is going to last long. So in the long run Janice has screwed herself over.
I think this post is long enough. I just figured I should not be so childish and leave a post like my previous one up. I was just angry at the time and had to vent. But now I feel much better about my situation.
