I got up at 5 a.m. to go to work and when I got there I was waiting to see who we were going to set appointments for because the 2 we agents we usually set for are going to be off tomorrow and we have one more in another state but we just started doing something different and we can always set for Friday and Monday, well being that the 2 main ones were blocked for tomorrow and the two can only take so many appointments in the day I was told that he wanted to work on the Friday appointments but we could not and said anyone that wanted to go home could, so the old man which I found out he is really greedy stayed and some new gut that I was told that if he did not get any appointments this week he would be gone, so they all stayed and I came home, but why me? I just have a feeling I was lied to by my supervisor who I consider a friend as well, I always get appointments all day long so does the old man but I was told my boss is tired of him and his attitude. He told her that if he would not have been there me and her would have gotten paid for the day, well that is what she told me, and then she said I can not afford to take off but I think that is a lie because she is taking off all next week to get married and buying a lot of things, and she did it last year too just took her own vacation because we don't get one and no paid Holiday's. Let me try to explain I am hearing so many different things like before I started there that they all came to work and the door was shut, and only a few got paid the rest of them were owed like$500.00 and never got it and then on the other side there is really not much to do there but we are expected to get our numbers but we have limited areas and times makes it hard! On the other side I have heard O this is going to work and we are going to grow because now we only have 3 employees, I have been told so many different things, I think I should start looking and I know that my supervisor already told me "remember last Friday when I said I had to go to my sons school for a meeting and it was at 10;30 a.m. and we leave at 1;30 on Friday and I said no sense in coming back here? I said yea she said the reason I did not come back is because I went to an interview and I am sure they hired her because she told me it was through her family! But why lie to me on Friday about that? Now she always afraid that they are going to call our boss and listens at the door when it is shut. She could have told me, I just feel like she knows something like this business might be closing and not telling us and I think it is wrong because I have always been there for her like on week I bought her lunch all week always covered for her at times when running late or just small things but I really have the feeling she is lying to me like today, I guess I could be wrong but I can usually tell when someone is lying to my face!! What do you think?

I would consider looking for a new job too. Unfortunately, she may be hiding something. I know that she's your friend but she can only say so much as a supervisor. My past supervisor lied to me on a regular basis and she was suppose to be my friend. I know better now. That relationship was a one way street just like my husband tried to tell me. I hope for your sake things are better then they appear.

Thanks and I think you are right I really need to start looking at other jobs, I really like it where I am but there is no future there and I am not getting any younger and I have thought about that, they have no benefits what so ever al it is ia a paycheck and that never goes far I am always broke by the begininng of the week and just got paid Friday! I am tired of it! Al other jobs I have had at least maybe it was more hours but I had a little $ left and not have to worry if I had enough gas to make it the next day like I do here everyday.

Well I read your problem and what I can gather is that there is sure a possibility that she may be lying to you but the thing is it can only be known to you because by just reading any problem no one can't understand the situation. You should also try to keep a discussion as precise as possible for the sake of the responders. Anyway you are the one who is to take a decision and so I would suggest you take it carefully.
