I am in a bit of a pickle. My job is not helping my stress/anx of depression. Infact it appears to be making it worse, my new "team leader" is such an idiot. He has hit on me, then critisized me, said sexist things like woman are pathetic, or woman just sh%t babies out there is nothing to it. I have a son.
Now my main boss is a honey pie and so very understanding, but this Team leader chap is like in the middle so normally I don't get to the main boss without mr team leaders say. Am I being to insensative. I can't go to HR because get this...he is sleeping with the woman in HR!!!!
LOVELY! being a mom and working is a mission, it appears you get no real break so to speak. I work hard and put in on average an additional 3 hours per week and often work my lunches, I don't stay late and leave on time simply because I want to be with my family and I come in early anyway. so this morning I was 2 minutes late, and he just had a go at me. I nearly cried! I felt like such an idiot, I mean I am very seldom late but if I drop Max at nursery because of the traffic and trying to find parking in our parking lot it can take me 2 minutes to get to my desk... this coupled with a few other things make me want to leave and find a company much more professional and flexible, i don't even want to be pregnant here again because I was made such fun that sometimes I felt ashamed to be pregnant.
Like I said maybe I am being to sensative but I want to look for something else. the problem is I am just to scared. Plus I work in the construction industry, I am a Quantity Surveyor, it's hard work with long hours I wish I could find a job to suit me the way I need it to...what a mission, I am just so worried and Anxious about finding something else it's like I will stay just for security of it all.
not to sure what to do, so I though I would just get it off my chest.
Thanks,
Jane
