Bring up the concern to the Manager, let her now that it would be beneficial for her to assign and interim Manager in her absence that could do this work for her. So that you do not threaten her authority tell her that the interim would take care of all the paperwork and interviewing however, the final decision would still lay with her.

This is a good approach.

Communication is the key for improving your office relationships. Let your boss know that you have doctor's order to reduce stress and that means working only 5 days/wk.

Take relaxation courses to help reduce your stress. Eat well, get enough rest and exercise. Stay organized in the office and keep reminders of 'happy thoughts' vacations, family, pets around you.

Read a Zig Ziglar book

Good Luck

Talk to her. Tell her that you are feeling very stressed and finding it hard working 6 days per week.Ask her when they will be recruiting new staff to take the place of those who have left.Be assertive. If you are not sure how to do this look up assertiveness on the web.

Bosses will usually pile the crap on the people who complain the least. You may be surprised to find that when you open your mouth and tell her you want only 5 days or etc. she may then pick out someone else.
I used to do the scheduling for a home health agency and my boss would make me pick on the same girls, when I would say something about it she would say keep doing it until they say something.

Otherwise find a new job, you can't make your boss do what you want. That's why she's the boss.

Def speak to your manager and express to her that youve been diagnosed with stress and you feel that certain circumstances within the department are aggravating this. If you really feel you cant speak to her, does she have a boss you can speak to? Seems bad to go 'over her head' but its whatever will get the situation sorted quickest. Good luck

Take the initiative to recruit people yourself. Make it a priority to find a new employee for your company and make sure you point out positive things that you notice about each applicant that you think would be a nice addition to your company.

Sit down and talk with her. Tell her exactly what you wrote here. Honesty is the best policy. If you don't tell her she won't know, and may not change anything. If she doesn't agree with you and doesn't care how you feel. Hit the high road jack, and find another job!!!

Get another job. Dont work over your allocated time. If you do it will just be expected and you will make a rod for your own back.

Can you talk to her face to face? Ask her if the 'short staffing' is temporary, because you can't work the overtime permanantly. See if she gives you a reasonable or satisfactory answer.
