Aight. It's mega MEGA rant time.
So after having to quit my cleaning job because of the no-longer-drivability of my car, I began working under the table for this chick who I had met at the job-site who was in charge of another portion of the building. Long story short, I've been working on and off with her for about 3 months now and it has been mostly hell.
For starters, she's from Boston. Accent and everyting and I fucking HATE it. Many of you may not know either how aggressive and angry I once was, and/or how laid back I've really become over the last year and a half, but being so laid back and having to put up with her aggressiveness and bossiness is just too much.
Second, she has no fucking idea how to be a good boss, or conduct a good business, at least as it applies to her "employees." Legaly, we're all under the table, and she doesn't neccessaraly have to follow the usual constraints of an employer-employee relationship. However that, to me, is besides the point. She doesn't know how to schedule, was once 2 hours late picking me up from an agreed-upon time to start work, and paid me a whole month late at least twice now.
Thirdly, while I've been coming at this whole breakdown of communication with the best of my abilities as a business person, showing politeness and professionalism, she's just been a total on-the-rag cunt. Quite frankly, she's trying to BS me out of the money she owes me, and telling me I'm the problem, and that she never liked the work I did and "always re-did it." If she had ANY idea how to be a boss, she would have told me there was a problem WEEKS ago, instead of letting it all build up to this, and given me time to adjust. She also doesn't know how to train people, so when she throws me this "oh you're not doing it this exact specific way" bull, it's her own damn fault for not going over that when I started.
Essentially, she's a "my way or the highway" type with a self-centered attitude. I'm sorry, but anyone who gets high on the drive between job-sites doesn't deserve to be in charge of anyone. At this point I don't care if she never pays me, because it's not going to be what she actually owes me, and I just don't want to see her again because I just might slap the shit out of her.
Okay, rant over.
