OMGosh!! What a hateful woman she is! You did the right thing and now your health won't suffer. (stress can do all kinds of bad things to your health).

I am so sorry for the abuse you had to endure. You did the right thing. You will discover how creative you can be to get along and now you have time to make your gifts. Whip up a gift bag for coal for the old bag herself.

Power goes to a lot of people's head. I worked for my Hubby, with our Son and oldest Daughter. It was all good, no boss as we are all adults and know our jobs.
No way I would work for or with a person like that.

I'm so glad to hear you finally got out of that hole. And I hate it that you had to go to work hating what you know was going to happen every day!!! You are one strong woman. You will find something far better than that, even with the economy the way it is, you will come out in front. Best of luck.

Well done for making a difficult decision. Take some time, chill, relax and look for something that you think you will enjoy. Life is too short to put up with bullies and despots.

I work in a similar situation, and the woman owns the company, so I have no recourse. I keep looking for another job and will be extremely happy to see this one go. She has gone so far as telling me I bring fleas in from my cat (who is treated monthly and has no fleas) and holds her nose if it is after lunch because she says my food stinks, no matter what it is, or even if I have no lunch. I'm hoping that Karma kicks in soon.

I agree in getting out of there. No need to stay if you can get out. If possible, I would suggest you schedule a meeting with her boss, or her bosses boss. Let them know calmly what it was like working with her. You could also encourage this boss to call other workers in (offline) and ask them about this boss. I'm sure they don't want to keep losing staff due to one rotten egg. Happy quilting.
