Hi All

I have a situation I have been in for almost a year. I have boss that is a bit off in that since she started she has had a lot of personal problems and been absent or non responsive when here. I tried to support her hold everything together she hired her friend who is always out or when in gives her work to others. My contractor spoke up and then she got fired. I have been trying to go to my boss on a project for almost a year and she told me to push it out until this month she now wants it done. She told me I was not an effective communicator and gave me me feedback clammed it on me even though I emailed, did a PowerPoint presentation and spoke about it once a week. Granted I could have been more assertive but needed help of other Tom team members. I caught my boss looking at my LinkedIn profile as well as her friend and at my resume. I expressed I was concerned she was trying to get rid of me and cried she said I know you feel bad but I am relieved because she felt like I was hiding things from her. So I am anxious and feel like I am loosing my confidence. I want I hang in there until my bonus next month but I feel like I am so unstable with her. I am not in her clique I don’t swear about employees or yeah on anyone and now I feel I am a target.

Office politics is not a good thing especially if you are on the outside .

Seems to me like your boss is not a very nice person .

If I was you write everything down what after you have spoken to her ( remember and date the times ) and especially what she has instructed you to do …..keep a record and show no-one . If she tries to fire you you can then take this record to Human Resources and fight your case .

If I was you hang in until you get your Bonus then find another job because it just not worth the hassle feeling so miserable at your work day in, day out …you deserve better .

For what it is worth your Boss will eventually get found out and she will get what she deserves !

Best if Luck and keep your chin up
