I don't have any parents, and my boss is like a mom to me?

Question

My parents died when I was younger. I live with an old aunt who doesnt seem to like me very much. I'm 20 f.

My boss (also female) where I work part time at a clothing store is soo nice to me. I do an amazing job with sales and product knowledge, and she thinks I'm great. Only thing is-- I can't help this-- I get very moody sometimes (NOT with customers). I don't curse, but I guess I'm fussy and complain to the boss. She always laughs it off and speaks to me gently. She also asks how I'm doing to make sure my personal life and school are going ok.

Do employees normally lose their jobs when they're fussy with their bosses? It's like she's my mom and I'm bitching to her. Everytime I do this, I feel bad and stupid afterwards, but I can never help doing it again.

Also, she's the only person I trust, and I don't even tell her alll that much personal stuff. Other than her being nice to me, my life is ****.

But am I gonna get fired if I lean on her like this?

Answer 1

you need to respect the boundaries there is between you and your boss.............. you must stop being moody to her...cause one day she may have a bad day and if you treat her like you are...then say goodbye to your job................ sounds like you need to get more and make friends...good luck with this

Answer 2

Its nice to have a mother figure in your life but you should not take your anger at life on her Get some help from a counseler Its the right place to emptied your heart because one day this woman will get fed up with your mood swing and you will lose not only your job but the only figure mother you had in your life You are 20 you are a adult and the decision is yours

Answer 3

Well, she seems to be a nice person. If she knows what's going on in your personal life, she could be understanding. But I would try not to be so fussy. She may seem nice one day, but you never know what will happen the next.
