I am fatigued due to Heart Failure which I felt I was coping well with. Ihave been back working (office admin) for a year. The person I work beside retired at Christmas and I was advised my colleague would not be replaced at the moment however we are a small building and other people have been helping. This has been working a treat and so far all tasks are being completed. Another colleague came to chat and said how great it was that the spare job has been upgraded, been given the same terms of reference as myself and was being advertised. Inside I went from calm to fuming... we are a very small building, 6 persons. I feel so disappointed and angry that my Manager could have let me know what the future plan was before I heard it from someone else... I did verbally offload when I saw my manager and they have blanked me ever since, which is stressful! I am not sure if I am reacting in part due to feeling so tired all the time as I wouldn't normally flare so quickly! Rant over. Thank you for listening. Stay well 🥰 xx

Hi Cinders123, thank you for sharing your story. As I've said before on this forum, a problem shared is a problem halved. Try not to get too stressed, take care.
Hi I’m sorry to hear what you’re going through at work. This seems to be the norm in workplaces. It’s so difficult as you spend so much time there. You said how you felt to your manager and your feelings are valid. It’s a shame they didn’t understand what you were saying.
I know about feeling tired and fatigued as I have heart failure also and it’s a daily battle. Just continue to do your job the best way you can and try not to worry too much. Very difficult I’m sure in such a climate. Hopefully your manager will think about what you said and understand the way you feel. All the best
Hi Cinders, of course you were angry, a post has been advertised; same as yours; more pay. Suspect they are looking way ahead to have just one post instead of two. Problem is you can't prove it. So to your outburst, again understandable, you work hard, good at your job, diagnosed with heart failure and still you carry on. Where is the appreciation? No need to look for why as understandable however you are in heart failure and the most important thing for the rest of your life is to care for you. Having shared your anger and recognised that humans get it wrong, let it go.
Carry on, treat yourself because you do deserve it and maybe look for a new job?? Good Luck
