Stupid Jerks

What astounds me about the person I work for is the absolute disregard she has for how she speaks to other people. The reason I don’t take anything she says personally is because she is such a bitch to everyone – not just me. I am amazed that people who do not work for, or with her put up with it. Unfortunately, I have no choice. This morning was classic case and point.

She stomps in with no good morning - nary a grunt or a glance upwards. She spends the rest of the morning not speaking to anyone with her pointy little nose buried in some government documents that are probably the most low-priority thing in this office right now, and upon seeing the 3 emails that I have sent her regarding information I felt was important enough to not just be asked verbally, but to be documented via e-mail so that we don’t have anymore “incidents” (and by incidents I mean her telling me one thing and then denying what she has told me later on and thereby blaming me for something that is out of my control because I was just following orders) she turns around to me, scrunches up her mousy face and asks me to stop sending her “so many emails” because she gets “like 8000 a day” [sic] and it “annoys her.” She also rolled her eyes and let the attitude flow when I asked her if there was parking nearby one of our downtown meetings next week (I figured since she has been to this location so many times she could just tell me).

If it weren’t for the fact that I have a mortgage and a wonderful husband that I could not bare to stress out with having to be the sole provider until I find other employment- I would get up from my desk this morning, dump the contents of my in-box onto the floor, and walk out. I loathe this job. This job makes me sick. This job causes me to lose sleep. This job is the bane of my existence.

I have applied to two other places and I am still waiting to hear back from them. I have my fingers crossed that I get one of them even if it is a very slight pay cut. I think for my sanity, I need to leave here.

What I don’t understand is this: How can someone be so rude to everyone all the time? How can they come to work and say to themselves “I am doing a great job, I’m a great manager, and everyone likes me.”??? I’m tired of giving people the benefit of the doubt. I don’t give a shit what has happened to her in her life that has made her so bitter. I don’t want to deal with her shit. I think this whole place is fucked up. We have two companies working side by side and there are two people (my boss and MegaBitch from the other company) who are causing nothing but grief for everyone else and NOTHING is being done about it. This is the most poisonous workplace I have ever been in. I have had it. I can only pray that I get one of those other jobs, otherwise I don’t now what I am going to do.

Office Girl.
