Would you quit?

Question

I am having a problem at work with my boss. She is also rude to me but latley she has become worse also I submitted a vacation request for around christmas at which she told me she would not approve because a transfer employee will be in our office soon and she knows that she has childern ( I do not have any kids) and she will probably want the time off. She also told another empolyee ( not a manager) that she wanted me gone and that things would be better if I found another job and that she was ready to fire me.
This is coming from my boss that is always calling in and documenting on her time. Taking vacations days that she does not have, etc. For the past 3 months I have produced more production then her and the other agent in the office. I always do what she asks. I do get a little smart with her when she gets rude with me but, I do not see why I should let her walk all over me and treat me like I am nothing. Need advice. Help Please!!

Answer 1

go to higher management than her and explain what you heard about her wanting to fire you and denying you vacation because someone with kids wants time off that doesnt work there yet. and ask what can be done---most places would rather work out the problem than lose a good employee.

Answer 2

Unless you can find a way to make your boss happy with you quitting is the only choice besides being fired. As long as you are judging her time off and getting smart with her you will get no where in the company. Even if you improve she won't forget your bad start.

Answer 3

Maybe she feels threatened by your hard work...I dunno; this is not an easy situation.

I'd start putting your resume out there, just incase you need something to fall back on and also to give yourself options in case it becomes too unbearable where you're at.

One thing you could do is to is to try to talk to her - she sounds insecure, though, so be careful.

Answer 4

sounds like you need a new job.

Answer 5

I would get a new job.
