I've got the hammy downs

Big project just ended. This leaves 50% of my paycheck unaccounted for in the new year. There are two places I could be put to work, both of those places will be bad for me.

1) with The Ogre. Enough said.

2) a project with the socially awkward woman, who doesn't wash her hands after she uses the bathroom, who has thrown me under the bus every time we have worked together, and then has made jokes about me getting my @ss chewed out by bosslady. Way to disrespect me, pee hands. (this is the woman who said her husband wouldn't stand on her, so she couldn't come in as none of her pants fit her bloated self).

I'm really, really upset and contemplating going 1/2 time. I don't know if we could afford it. I'd have to be all under 1,000 and ish.

Re: I've got the hammy downs

  • i would go with the socially awkward woman, and have a big bottle of Purell on your desk when you work together. every time she hands you something, use the purell.

    and then document everything.

    or is the ogre any better? which is the less horrible of the two? want to trade and work in MY office for the rest of the year? i'm doing data entry. it's awesome.

  • Do you want to share meds? I mean, you've got better ones than I do but we can still swap if you want.
  • Do you have a choice? Are there really no other projects you could be assigned to? That sucks. I'd probably choose socially awkward lady too, then I'd passive aggressively throw her under the bus until she gets the point.
  • This is basically a 6 of one, half a dozen of the other, as both of them are BFF with boss, which means, you get thrown under the bus for everything and you don't have a standing chance. I when I say get my @ss chewed out by my boss, I mean it. She literally screams, repeating herself, and then there are the explanations as for why she screamed (never appologies). Yeah, lady, it is OK for you to literally yell at me about a comma because you are busy.

    Pmeg - I'm off all meds because nothing worked. It actually made things worse. I was angry, cried a lot, and people were starting to comment that I wasn't acting like myself any more. So, no more SSRIs. They ain't for me.

    I'm just gonna need a lot of valium.
