Default My bloody boss!!!

Sorry guys, this is not really related with Australia directly, but for those of you who have been following me for the last year or so on this forum, you might know that i had to give 4.5 months notice at work....

To say the least, my boss didnt talk to me for a week when i told her i was leaving...

Anyway, i now have 1 month left and my holidays are planned in 5 days. The thing is, after many echographies, doc's appointments and a CT scan this morning, we finally found why my stomach had been hurting so much for the last month. Well, i have a bad torsion in my right ligament, just below my stomach. (same thing that happens in your elbow when you play tennis too much). This is actually good news cause we thought it would be a hernia and needed surgery. All i need is to rest at home for a week.

Imagine the reaction of my boss when i walked in (had already called work to pre-warn them). She saw me, didnt EVEN ask how my scanner went and all she said it "when are you coming back to work this week?" which I answered with a "i am not, the doc advised i stay at home this week".

Then she walked out. My other colleague, who is a sweetheart (usually) was pissed off cause she would have more work... she said that if i had to have surgery she would have understood but she said i could have kept on working till my holiday and i would rest then!!!! can u imagine? if i did that i wouldnt even be able to walk next week!

Anyway, sorry to rant but i am very disappointed by my workmates and my boss. Needless to say that i too kind and i am checking my mails from home and called my customers to give them my mobile number....

Thanks for your support!

Fabes,

Don't you DARE let your nasty bitch of a boss get you down - you only have a month left so I think it's about time you changed your attitude to 'sod 'em!'. These people are simply not worth the effort - just put your feet up and rest for the week, like the doc ordered.

Keep smiling, flower!!

Nicky

When I hear people talking about beautiful women your image will enlighten my mind.

Poor you, what a bunch of asses!!! Just goes to show what nice people you will be leaving behind - NOT!!!! Keep your chin up and screw them, once your sitting pretty in Aussie you will be the last one laughing, that is for sure.

Hope you feel better soon, take it easy and don't give them another thought, they aren't worth it. I am a big believer in what goes around comes around, they will get theirs!

Take care
Janine
