Fed up!!

[Bentleybexley39]

Yesterday as usual my job was so crazy with emails and multiple things happening at once. I was not feeling good and for the first time in 5 months I actually just worked 8hs. Which is what my schedule is supposed to be. Apparently as soon as I walk away from my emails things crumble around 6:40 and are still messed up until 10 that night. And I don’t have my work emails on my phone because of my anxiety and missed it all. Logged on this morning to a massive email chain and my coworker who first of all was responsible for the miscommunication was the one all last night having to fixing the error. My boss then has the nerve to email me today saying that I should have let my coworker know when I was logging off rather than just abandoning her to fix it because it’s my project and my responsibility… ummm last time I checked I am paid to work 8h and do not have to tell ppl when I’m done for the day and when I walked away at my scheduled time, things were fine!! I have been working 13h days for months! My boss keeps telling me to log off and not work so long. Well when I walked away at 5:30 everything was fine. But now I get a reprimanded email and get to have a stern talking to tomorrow. It’s like I can’t freaking win!! I am so angry in full defensive mode. I took all the necessary steps a week ago reaching out to managers saying I need help. The managers bailed on the meetings have this chick partake instead, she says things in the meeting that I assume is right because I’m still new and she has been here for 6y so I just do what she says…. Then apparently how we did things was wrong. All I did was do what she said! How am I in trouble!?? And I’m still sick!! And of course how could I even possibly take a sick day!?! Ughhh someone tell me the rules to the corporate world because apparently I know nothing!!!

Unfortunately, The way it works its just that you have to give your 100%+. My anxiety actually started at work 😞 because of high pressure. Hope everything gets better.

Thanks. My anxiety started at my last job and I was stuck there for 13y. This job was supposed to be better. It was supposed to be a fresh start…….. guess I was wrong. This is what I get for having expectations 😞

Yeah, I totally get you. I just wanted to keep learning and growing in my career so I requested to be moved to that new program and it was a nightmare. Granted I was already nervous but that just blew off my anxiety out of proportion. I haven't recovered completely, I only got it under control for two years and then it came back. Still suffering from it and other health issues. Hope, everything goes better for you. Always put your health first (thats what I learned)

First, that is a horrible day! Unfortunately this happens a lot, just recently had the same type of situation. It's unbelievable that someone put in charge with experience in the company, can give the wrong information.

It's okay to feel the way you do, I

You are certainly not the only one that would feel the same.

I try to rethink the day, realize what happened was not my fault and try to relax and let the day go.

I wish you the best, every day can be a challenge.

I get you 100%!! That sounds like my day everyday!

I’ve been at my current company for 2 years and can’t believe the incompetence I deal with daily. A lot of it stems from poor training I’m other departments and some from the wrong people in the wrong role.

At the end of the day what matters most is what I can control.

I try not to stress about it too much because it’s just not worth it.
