Today is cancelled.

Thanx 20Inch, and everyone Things slightly better today but not much..she is being nicer and knows she has well overstepped the mark with some personal stuff she said but it is the same old pattern.
She has several days of becoming more&more uptight before finally unleashing all her pent-up cr@p-usually on me-but then calms down and begins to be nice. Usually this is the point where I am so glad its blown over and we are ok again that I go back to being friendly with her and all is fine then for a couple of weeks before it slowly begins all over again. And after 10 years of this im having enough.
It is difficult as she is Bi-Polar, and an alchoholic, and has terrible mood swings and cannot cope with anything she percieves as "stress" (this latest was set off by having to cook lunch for 4 people instead of 2) I know all about her illnesses, how much she drinks, her rehab stays, and her self harming and that I think is why she takes things out on me, as she resents the fact that I know all that I do. But tomorrow is another day so lets hope it all calms down soon. Shelf-stacking in Tesco is beginning to sound like a heavenly job to me atm.

are you her nanny/wife/mother? GET ANOTHER JOB she's taking the p*ss

This is just a ploy so you can get close to that young lad from the frozen foods dept isn't it Lisa?

This Boss sounds a right dragon. Have you ever blown your top at her and given her what for?

Glad things are better, that certainly explains the issues - problem is do you log a grievance ??? Tricky - Just keep a record of these flare upsif worried.

My boss was actually OK today, phoned me rather than send a sickening email..... we're getting the information (I'm not even on the main site, and the 'info' is 30 miles away) and he's off till next Weds anyway...so much for the I need it now and two days of madness......

Sheesh....I was a manager of loads of staff a few years back, but stepped back/changed jobs a couple of years ago to get on with cycling and life...some folk don't have a clue how to treat staff !

Damn.. Sussed....

Fossyant..am glad your day was better, your right about some people not having a clue how treat staff tho.

I just try to keep my head down and get on with my work so she cant pick up on anything to do with my job.If it were someone I worked with id have more leeway to confront her but being my boss its difficult.
I shall see what tomorrow brings
