I am so torn as to whether or not it is time. I really love my job.. Well I love what I do and my direct boss, but the office politics have really gotten to me.
I am an Execuitve Assistant for one of the founders of the company. I work for the HR Director in my spare time and sometimes help out the other founder as needed.
The HR Director is absolutely awful! She has crazy mood swings and does not think there is anything wrong with yelling at me in front of other employees. Her argument is that she is allowed to be in a bad mood. She is very belittling and watches my every move. The other founder thinks and treats me as if I am worthless.
In addition, when I discuss these feelings with my direct boss, he tells me that I am over-reacting and that I need to get a thicker skin. He just does not understand nor offer any solution.
I apoligize for ranting, however, I am just so torn. In addition, I work in the same office as my husband which is very convenient. HELP!

If you’re asking the question, it is probably time. It’s a time tested tool, but make yourself a list with two columns: pros and cons. Fill in the columns and see which side has the most responses. If your cons outweigh your pros, it couldn’t hurt to start testing the water by sending out some resumes. Just because you’re considering your options doesn’t mean you are actively looking. If something better comes along via this method, you still won’t be ‘forced’ to make a change unless you elect to. What you will have gained, however, is at least a CHOICE about whether to stay or leave. Knowing you have a choice can sometimes have a tremendous impact in how helpless you feel when facing as impossible boss like the HR director. It pulls the power away from her and back to you.
Look for another job – now.
This is causing you too much stress. The woman sounds like a selfish, self-important pig, void of any management skills.
Get your resume up-to-date, find another position and leave on good terms as your husband also works there, you don’t want to involve him in any of this.
Find a different department.
She don’t need to act that way to you.
when its time to find a new job is when there is a problem in your job I THINK YOU NEED TO FIND NEW JOB!
When you and your boss get into a fight and you beat the **** out of your boss
DONT EVER LET ANYONE TREAT YOU POORLY. U SHOULD TELL YOUR HR DIRECTOR TO PISS OFF! J/K BUT WHEN SHE YELLS AT YOU LET HER KNOW THAT IT IS YOUR PRIVACY WHEN YOU ARE EVALUATED, NOT EVERYONES BUISNESS. IF SHE HAS A PROBLEM WITH YOU SHE NEEDS TO PULL YOU ASIDE AND DISCUSS, NOT YELL AT YOU AND TREAT YOU LIKE CRAP. STAY WHERE YOU WORK BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD JUST HANDLE THE SITUATION DIFF. APPROACH HER AND ASK HER IF SHE HAS A PROBLEM SHE WANTS TO DISCUSS. DONT LET HER MAKE YOU SWITHCH JOBS AND WIN WHEN SHES THE ONE WITH THE PROBLEMS
I think the right time to find another job is NOW. You state you love your job, but from what you write, it doesn’t appear so. And . . . it is never a good idea to work in the same office as your husband. Do not quit . . . look for another job . . . and secure the job before quitting. And . . . good luck in your search and your success!
Maybe you should move on…
when the security guard is showing u out
If she is disrespecting you then that’s not going to change. You can change your attitude about it, but she’ll just mask her emotions. She’s obviously got something against you, and I’d make sure they either changed her or you tell them you’re out.
I think you should move on or SERIUOSLY go to school and learn a new trade. It doesn’t seem like your going anywhere fast at that place.
I think its time for you to move from this job or contact HR and put in a complaint for everyone who talks down to u. Have u expressed that you will not tolerate being talked down to and that its inappropriate? If not let them know how u feel and hell use a little attitude with their a** from time to time and let them know you won’t be walked on. Its time to move when your doing the same thing day in and day out and not growing as an individual or learning anything new. I feel the same way and now is the time so don’t wait another minute.
when you ask a question like this
I think you might need a new job. Can you find one for me as well?
When you arrive at work and find that your badge is deactivated.
I love my husband, but I would slit my wrists if I had to work with him.
when youd rather be at home and you dread being at work then you know its time to find a different job
Time to go!
You’re going to have a big clash if you don’t, and it’s better for you to leave before that happens so your references aren’t damaged.
So, basically you have one good boss and the rest of the job sucks.
It’s definitely time to move on. Your resume is going to kick butt and get you a good job. Just get your references in writing, or you never know what your lesser bosses will say. If they’ve committed to an attitude of generosity on paper, they’re going to look nuts if they slam you later.
Also, if your lesser boss’ write something unpleasant, you’ll have time to show it to your somewhat better boss as an example of inappropriate animosity displays at work.
Good luck to you, and don’t be held back another day. You wouldn’t be asking these questions if you were loving your job.
when they stop paying you…
its time to go when there are more bad days than good. dont be afraid to stand up for yourself. when they get on your case, come right back at them and let them know you wont take it. put them in their place. they are no better than you, let them know. if you get fired, so be it. if not, they wont yell at you again… they will find someone else to pick on.
