When I went in to work on Monday, I told my boss what had happened to Jenni and cried (as much as I didn't want to - I couldn't help it). At that time
I was told that "anything I need". My receptionist called in and quit so taking time off wasn't an option. Even worse, I punch out for lunch and
pretty much work right through it - we have been that busy.
Yesterday, I was told that because of a conference call, my work must be caught up by next week or heads are gonna roll. That means I have to come in early - work late - do whatever it takes. Do I care that my head might roll. Heck no! But Chuck didn't take kindly to the extra work for me. So I may get ahold of a temp agency and leave this job because it is just too much anymore for 1 person to do. Not to mention that "my work" includes what the receptionist didn't do and that was a lot.
I am furious with my boss. So much for being understanding. And I have news for him. My family comes first. He told my coworker that he couldn't have a day off for his daughters tonsilectomy because his "job came first". So Mark called off that day. So today, I get to go in 1 hour early, get shown trumped up examples of how inadequate my work is (BS) and otherwise be stressed out. I wish I could walk in, flip my time card onto his desk and tell him I quit. I just hope he doesn't push me that hard or that may happen and then I would have to push a temp agency into finding me work quickly.
