GM HATE!

Hi. So I've been working at Borders and getting more and more used to things, except I really hate/fear the GM. She's a bitch. Maybe she's going through menopause or something, but she sure is really bitchy. So I needed to request off....a responsible thing to do right....and shes like you need to schedule it 2 weeks in advance. No one fucking told me that. So I though I wouldn't be able to get off to work at the Hawaii Primary Election. Fine whatever, so I was really too scared to ask off for my interview at the same time. And then she like makes it seem like I won't get that day off....what does she do....schedule me off. WTF. Make up your mind. So I fill out the form we need to fill out to get off...this is like 5 weeks ahead of time....and then she calls me into the office, "you know....you just started and you are asking off all the time, is this going to be happening every month? we rarely give time off..." well fuck you then. how about being more flexible. I fucking work every damn odd hour you fucking give me (the hours aren't that odd, but still...). So I was like this is a really rare circumstance...I said it was a family weekend thing verses saying that I was going to another interview...but if she doesn't fucking give me off I'm going to quite that job.

This is the first time that someones words pierce my heart. Everything that she says to me is usually very negative (her tone of voice is always very harsh/negative/mean sounding). This has been really bothering me a lot ever since I started working there. I've never been so affected by someones words. They really stick with me and I feel really down all the time. She hasn't said anything about the things I do good or anything. I'm pretty sure I'm doing some stuff that is good....
I wonder if I'm being over-sensitive about this.

Anyway, hope you all are doing well.

    I hate that your boss is stupid and insensitive! If you want my advice I'd say quit the job. It's not worth getting your self-esteem hurt everyday for a few bucks, believe me! My boss at ny&co was totally like that and I hated going into work and always felt like a complete failure after work...and that seeps into your personal life! I was so happy the day that I quit!

    Besides, if you found this job you can find another right? YOU CAN DO IT! I found a job in nyc in less than week...it's totally doable, you just have to have that can-do attitude.

    I hope things work out for you soon! Call me if you wanna talk okay?

    Love,
