Do I have a right to be mad?

Question

I'm so aggrevated with the place I work at right now. Today someone came into to pick up their daughters glasses. Usually the doctor's depense them to fit them to the patient but the patient was not with her mother. I saw they had already been placed in a case and where her old lenses put in a frame. I placed the glasses on the counter and took the payment from the mother. The mother had the glasses in hand and the doctor I work for looked at them and said "Why are these going out like this?" He pointed everything out to me that was wrong; the case needed a sticker with our office name in it, there was no cleaning cloth, & the glasses weren't straight. My whole thing is we have optitians in our office who are employed just to despense and get glasses out to patients why didn't they put it up to go out correctly. Why should I have to do their job plus mine? They never do their own job and expect me and the other two women I work with to do it for them.

The doctor was then telling the other women I work with that I was doing too much and to the effect of I shouldn't be doing it on my own. I hate this it's the whole reason I always doubt myself. People make it seem as if I am incapable of doing anything right. The other woman I work with was like ask me if you have problems (I was aggrevated because I do ask if I have problems and I stick up for her when she needs help or is blamed for something she did not do). Luckily the other woman I work with had my back and said I would have done the same thing it is not our responsiblity to do their job for them. Most glasses are not put up in cases so if they are put in cases the optitians are the last ones to touch them so they should make sure they are straight and have all the stuff they need. Not us!!!

Answer 1

Well, sure you can be mad if you want. You can also find another job if you want. Best thing would be to talk to the boss and get a clear ruling on who does what, and what you're expected to do. Then you can write it up for future reference. Just don't sulk and be snappy at work over stuff like this. That's a guaranteed way to find yourself encouraged to explore other career opportunities...

Answer 2

yes, you have every right to be upset....talk about this with your doctor for these may be signs of serious side-effects. But really, talk to him.
