It's not any easier

A page in the diary "I hate myself"

Today I confronted my boss about the date i would be leaving work and he said HE hadn't made up his mind yet.
I have given him a date, but was unsure if they would make me leave earlier, deep down i was hoping i could.
I said that i should be able to get some confirmation from management as to when i was leaving and he just tried to fob me off. I persisted and we ended up having a 2hr conversation that cleared the air a little, for him anyway. He is totally blaming me for the whole mess and doesn't seem to think he has done anything wrong, but i set him straight on a couple of things, which made me feel a little better i think. I am not usually one to stick up for myself, and i hate confrontation but i was beginning to feel like a whipped dog that just kept rising again for another beating, over and over.
He will never acknowledge his issues, so i think i have done the right thing by resigning.
He wanted me to stay, but i don't think it would be a good idea, i don't think i can trust him anymore.
Anyway i leave on March 7th, and all my workmates are really upset that it has come to this and the way i am being treated.
Anyway, tomorrow is just another day in paradise, NOT !!

No one can stop you from resigning. You have to give the pay period notice ie if you get paid weekly, one weeks notice, fortnightly, a fortnights notice.

I am glad you and your boss sorted things out and even if it is 2 hours at least you were able to do it and stand up for yourself. Well done on that one.

Just remember you have your end date and keep turning up to work and do your job and leave on the 7/3 without breaking any bridges because you never know what the future holds.

Go Nouse!!!

Studying

PS People who have problems like your boss are never going to admit they have problems because they don't think they have problems/it is you who has the problems. Your boss reminds me so much of Queen Bee!!! Be happy you had 2 hours to tell him a few home truths.
