Am I really doing this?????

Those of you who have been following this board for a while know that I have gone back to work after 3 years of disability.  I am still on disability, and Im on a government program (Americorps/VISTA) where I am considered a volunteer.  I work in the CASA office here in Ouachita County.  Well, its not hard to tell from my posts that Im sincerely not happy here.

Im not a quitter, but tomorrow, I'll be meeting with the president of our board to turn in my resignation from this office and to ask for another placement w/the program.  I cannot take any more of the incompetent supervision that is going on in our office.  Im tired of doing most of the work and getting NO credit, and not one ounce of appreciation, and the one who does NOTHING getsall the glory while all the other offices thinking I am a fool, along w/the other "flunkie" in the office. 

Sooooo, long story short, in the midst of job shortages, I am walking out, much to my heartfelt pain, I am not a quitter, but I will not stand by and be talked to like a 3 year old when I know that I deserve more.  Besides, after I cried tears of ANGER all the way home today, my wonderful supportive DH said, "pack your crap and be gone" so I guess that I'll have to go, since that is the only ORDER I have ever recieved from him.

If I am not around much in the next few days, I'll be processing the changes in my life yet one more time.  Gosh, Im so glad losing all the weight has made me more flexible!!!!

Love you all,
See ya around,
Rhonda D. the one who must be nuts!!!!

I must pat you on the back..........staying in a miserable situation will only lead to health problems and weight re-gain in some cases.......like me

I am sitting in my depressed state....not working out.......gained about 6 pounds......too much stress.

gotta get the plastic surgery re-done in november......wow thats nice huh??

You will be fine.......you have to do what makes you happy.
Maybe the timing may not be right for you to be "working"..........all things happen for a reason.

Good luck
huggs and kisses
tammy........the one who cant get it right after all these years

Thanks Tammy,
I must say that weight gain is an issue, I never thought of myself as a stress eater, but here I am!!! 

I appreciate your support more than you know, because even though I know Im doing the right thing, its still difficult to leave.  I guess the part that hurts the most is my "supervisor" and I have been supposed friends since grade school, and I never ever thought it would be this way.  I'll be sure and let you know how it all goes today.

Hugs,
Rhonda D. the one who feels like a loser

Sorry things on the job were so bad.  There is not much worse for morale than a glory grabbing , do nothing "supervisor".  Some people just don't know how to be in charge without being an arse.   Glad your husband is so understanding and supportive.  You will do better than this. 
Best wishes on finding something that lets you use your talents and gives you the fulfillment that we all need to remain at our best.  Life is just too short to have do dread our job time.  It's way too high a percentage of our time to spend it in misery.   Hang in there and good luck.

Hey Steve,
Thaks for your words of support.  It is so hard to walk out, as I told Tammy, she's supposedly been my friend for YEARS, and now the backbiting and backstabbing!!!  Geez!!

My husband is wonderfully supportive, said we arent starving and if they cant move you you can move back home, lol. 

I have other job options, United Way is looking for someone that pays twice what I make now, and it has BENEFITS!!!! 

I'll keep you guys posted!!!  Keep me in your prayers.

Rhonda D. the disappointed one

Change is scary -- you are a brave lady!  Kudos to your hubby for his support.  He's a keeper, eh? :-)

Stay strong!!!!

You do what you have to Rhonda.  No job is worth that much stress.  I survived my "walk out" and I'm much happier for it.  Let us know how things go, we'll all be pulling for you.  You have a loving and supportive dh and that is what matters.  I predict that everything will work out for the better.  Good luck!

Whew...I had to re-read that .... I thought that you were saying that your DH kicked you out of the house...I am so glad I misread that!  Hang in there regarding the job.  Things will get better.
