I had to bite my tongue

I'm taking a 20 mins break for lunch and just checked MYlot. He has been on a campaign form last year to get rid of me as I would not give him details about my p/time job. Most people here know that I do another job but it is my business. he wanted to know who I was working for, and what I was being paid and how many hours per week. I refused to tell him after taking legal advice and so he wants to get rid of me. He really is evil - and this is the worst that I can say about anyone. I really am so cross but have to hide it - then my bp goes sky high. Sorry for the rant.

It sounds like a control issue, and it does sound like he's being ...a pest... on purpose. If there's anyone above him, I'd try and talk to them about the things he's doing to harrass you. Don't know where you're located, but in Canada you could speak anonymously to the Labour Board or Human Rights to get info on action you can take in this case.

...I could share some stories of my own, but even here I don't totally trust how anonymous this is lol... You're not alone, though, if that's any comfort...

Thak you for responding. Yes, it is a control issue. It is 6 am and I am at work waiting for the accountant to come. I cannot do anymore work until he arives and checks what I have done. he is also vindictive. The Board had a meeting about 2 months ago and I was not invited. However, ta few of them had heard and told him at the outset of the meeting that I was the best Property Manger that they had ever had and that they would not vote to dismiss me. So he denied that was the reason for meeting without me. Mnay thnaks

I'm glad that you received my pc. I posted it at the airport on my way out. I'm surprised that you have not yet received the little pressie that I sent you from N.C. At least you can see where I work!

My biss is a power freak and likes to be in total control. he said qquite openly this morning that he is going to spread a vicious rumour over one owner as she has voted against him in a homeowner's decision. I was totally appalled - as I said - evil describes him. Always difficult to work with but from last July has been so mean. His wife is a mouse who actually takes his meds and vitamins from the botttles each day and gives them to him with OJ to swallow. He is retired but on plenty of boards and of course, the Chairman where I work.

I am trying to build up my basket work with villas but of course tourism is down as only the super rich can travel. I am however, doing more advertising and praying hard. This morning, I felt to grab my bag and leave but this would be wrong as it does not suit me to do so.Blessings

I did get your package. I sent you a message on myLot about it! You didn't get it? I even started a discussion about it the day or day after I got it. I forgot you said you were sending it, so it was a really nice surprise when it came. I can't wait to try the Ginger Beer recipe. I have had the bottled stuff before and I love it. I am gonna make some Jerk Chicken with the seasonings soon too.

I am so happy that you received it. I don't believe that I have checked my messages since I returne3d. Oh that is so great and I am happy that you received them. Blessings

Oh, thank you dear. I am so fragmented at the moment. I just wnet to the phartmacy and begged the pharmacist to give me one tablet to calm me down and I am beginning to feel better. when I get fragmented he becomes even more cruel by phoning me constanlty and sending me emails. I just too a five - I've been here from 7 am . I cannot think straight when I am fragmented and this is how he wants me to be so that I will make mistakes. I am ignoring his emails so as to try and get the work done and then he calls me and tells me that he has sent an email and wants an answer immediately! He definitely thinks that he is God. Many thanks for the hugs,. am feeling a bit better now. will make a cup of tea and get back to work. Bless you

Kill him with kindness! I know you can do that. Show him that what he's doing to you will not affect you or your work. He's not worth getting flustered or fragmented over. He's just a creep, and in a few years when you're capable of retiring, he'll be absolutely nothing!

Yes, I am always pleasant and charming to him. also I smile a lot. I will just have to keep going. Thank you for responding. It feels good to have friends supporting me.

Well, he has just left my office and the Budget was ready for him at 9 am as he requested. Hew as so surprised. he will not chnage - what I have to do is change my reaction to him when he harrasses me. Many thanks

u just hang in there w/him, girl. maybe something bad will happen & he'll stump is toe or worse. he's just a big bully.

I know that I need the job and I know that I have to be strong to deal with him. I get fragmented and he loves it when I stammer or forget something. It is cruelty and no, there is no one to report it to as he is the boss. Everyone is cared of him and this is what delights him. Thanks for responding.

Bodhi, with the bad economy plus my age AI would not be able to get another job anmd do need to work 3 more years before I retire. I do not want to be a burden on my children so I need to work. Many thanks for responding. I am sorry that you have been through the same thing with these control freaks. Blessings

I am sorry that you have faced this too. People in authority can be very unkind. Thank you for responding

Hi che - he left about 10 mins ago and I feel so free. The work was done and presented and there was nothing for him to criticise. No, no overtime pay. Thaks for responding

What annoys me is his mental cruelty and rudeness to me. Many thanks for responding

My age plus the economy is against me in finding another job. I do have a part time job that I need to keep. He knows this and just enjoys bullying me. It is a game that he is playing for me to walk off the job so that He does not have to pay me any redundancy money if I was fired. so he is literally in my face by bombarding me with phone calls and emails demanding reports and things immediately that are totally unnecessary. Thaks for your good wishes and advice.

i just wanted to let you know that i had the same exact situation at work for over 8 months and i documented the harrassment with dates and times and who did what. at the end i told my boss about it and he said he would not fight me if i wanted to collect unemployment because he was afraid. he did not say he was afraid but he knew i could cause alot of heartache for him with my documentation. also it is called harrassment and if you leave a job under duress like that due to harrassment and because he was piling work on you then you will be able to collect unemployment. trust me, i did.
