I have always said if you’re not happy DO something. So,
with some nudging from my wonderful supportive Duste, I have put one foot in
front of the other and have taken charge of my professional life. I am doing
something and it feels great! I feel like I am back in control, like I am no
longer a sitting duck, no longer a victim! I am checking into the insurance requirements,
in case I accept a part time position that offers no insurance I want to still
be eligible to get my own policy the first of the year. Oh to be young and healthy
again and not worry with health insurance.
As suggested by my wonderful Duste, I have packed up all the
personal things on my desk. I think this will send a clear signal, which is
exactly what they need. I want to make them sweat, make them realize they can’t
treat me unfairly and I will just take it. Even if I do end up staying for the
next 5 months, this will let them know I am serious. That makes my evil side
smile!
To be honest, I would love to be a fly on the wall and watch
their reactions when they come in Monday/Tuesday and notice my desk is bare—as I
am off for the first 3 days next week. By the time I get back they will have
worried and sweat like crazy and by “they” I mean “she”. (hehe—my evil side
again)
Although I find myself on a dimly lit path I will continue
walking to see where it leads, I will not fear this change, it is necessary for
my health and happiness!
You teach people how to treat you, and you have Finally taught them that you --don't poke the bear--.
