Today is better

I spent most of yesterday in a funk--partially out of exhaustion and mostly because of my job situation. But I fiddled with my resume and contacted a couple of recruiters who had contacted me in the past unsolicited.

One of them emailed back this morning and said that she had several positions that might work for me. Just the slightest hint of an opportunity filled me with hope and made my day better. I don't think I realized how much my job was beating me down until it all came to a head this week.

She asked for a contact number and I sent it, along with instructions regarding the best time to call me. Because Big Boss hovers outside my door anytime I am on the phone or someone is in my office. Last week he came in and started giving me instructions while I was on the phone with one of our corporate clients! (He has also instructed me not to have conversations with particular associates and staff members--I wasn't kidding about the jealous boyfriend thing.)

ugh! whenever my boss tries to talk to me while i'm on the phone with a client, I put the call on speakerphone so he can hear that real work is going on and he's basically stealing a resource away from the client by bugging me at that moment. your boss sounds like he's got that old-man-reverting syndrome, where he turns back into a self-centered, needy little boy. good luck and congrats on your plan to move on from there.
