I cried out to God to get me out of the job. It was killing me. 3 days later, I got fired. I am sooo happy to be out. While getting fired is also soul crushing, I still feel blessed to be out. I wish you the best. Keep us posted .<br />Hugs to you.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11321648206619292443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012982845940063925.post-54137171006593053312010-09-28T11:26:11.796-05:002010-09-28T11:26:11.796-05:00Good for you!

I had to tighten the purse strings for the month but hey I found another job, I start Monday and it is a job that is much more suited to me than the previous one. I say good for you. Your post was amazing.

You haven't quit, but decided to take another route. And that's always OK. I believe good things await you just around the next bend.Shirley Pandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474597287578246450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012982845940063925.post-17562200850645484632010-09-02T00:40:28.408-05:002010-09-02T00:40:28.408-05:00Amazing how many times I've heard (and used) t...Amazing how many times I've heard (and used) the term "walking on eggshells" to describe how people act around those who are bipolar.<br /><br />Whenever I've had to endure bad bosses or bad co-workers (and fortunately I haven't had too many of them), it has made me glad that all we had was a professional relationship -- i.e., that I wasn't married to them. Eek.<br /><br />Hooray for you for having the courage to move on to your next endeavor! You are smart to realize there might be some short-term sacrifice, but I am sure that great opportunities await you!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15983044380353334177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012982845940063925.post-44471540187534830862010-09-01T16:51:41.955-05:002010-09-01T16:51:41.955-05:00Cheryl, Good for you choosing yourself, your menta...Cheryl, Good for you choosing yourself, your mental well-being and your happiness! I will pray for something amazing to be revealed to you to enhance your life, not stress you out as this job did. You were dealing with a crazy person it seemed. I too had a lot of issues with my current employer when I began for several months and had quit and been threatened to be sued by her even, and we agreed to a two month "quitting" period and in that period she changed her tune towards me and I think it helped us both see what we expected out our business relationship. at the end of the two months, she offered if I would like to continue, and I decided too and our whole relationship changed for the better and today a couple years later it couldn't be better! So sometimes things can seem dim and still have hope. In your case, anger outbursts out of control are just NOT acceptable and shouldn't be tolerated though! It's quite different than the situation I was in, but I know the feeling of feeling like you'll have a nervous breakdown in the midst of it! Good thoughts and prayers out to you!

Clearly your job stress was depleting your energy to at the least blog. Second, kudos. How brillaintly written. I get it and am with you and support you and your decisions. I have recently hit that wall with my sister who is an abusive addicted narcisscist. I let go of hope that it would change and it did change. I don't need to butt my head against that sick relationship wall any longer. So I really get you. Be well and breathe dear one.Robin Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16861881566669113460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012982845940063925.post-15912975427247286182010-09-01T08:38:40.468-05:002010-09-01T08:38:40.468-05:00You didn't quit!
