You are getting out of that madness, and that can only benefit your mental health and future job plans. Let her destroy the place on your way out the door, it's not your problem anymore.

That went kinda OK. She was first super puzzled that I was bringing something up and then I think she was genuinely shocked. She'd bought a new appointment book for piercings just a few weeks ago and despite losing 75% of her staff already she really seemed to think I was going to just sit around in the filth indefinitely. Things with my notice is, of course, awkward, because for some loving reason she is going to be skipping a heap of timenext week, which I didn't know before I decided to quit but is a bonus. So I said I'll be done on Friday seeing as I'd be alone in the shop next Saturday or if she wants I could pay myself and leave the keys inside when I leave. I don't give a poo poo either way. I think giving her this info and then giving her a choice was confusing enough that she didn't turn on me or anything, or she was just so shocked that the guy she tried and failed to get to quit all year just waited til he was ready to quit. I wonder if she thought she'd beaten it out of me. We'll see tomorrow, I gave her no extra info, no details of where I'm going. I feel very relieved atm. But mainly because I felt SO sick before hand and it's gone. Its like how you feel after throwing up E: Sorry my grammar is all over the place my brain is fried

Unwanted advice as you pull out of that hellhole: She's going to try and get information from you and make you agree to poo poo you don't want. Have firm boundaries in your head as to what you will and won't do or tell her.

I had people from my past job suddenly texting me and asking for designs, and just casually dropping the "Where are you working now?" "How much do you make?"

I started selectively venting in different spaces online because.. well I've been insufferable but now we can laugh at these https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1655884720188833792?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1662468833452478466?s=20 I dont remember this one https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1656647085897273345?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1674824492873400341?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1649364967236198402?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1648725568454524943?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1648268089622921217?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1643535696479567873?s=20 https://x.com/Shoehead_art/status/1639597606216105984?s=20 quote:Boss update, yesterday she made the new Apprentice and the old work exp kid rearrange her many many books of tattoo drawings (which we no longer show to people but she will not store elsewhere). This morning she spent about ten minutes undoing everything they'd done quote:According to her The Monk (an Irish crime boss) has ADHD and that all children with ADHD MUST be educated least they fall to a life of organised crime. ALL of them. Because they think outside the box quote:Got flowers from the entire staff last week because of her dad and cried. Within an hour was making fun of our Artist for buying pink gloves. Followed it up this week by stealing them and wearing them in front of the artist because she's a psychopath quote:Turns out her mother had to leave her father on his deathbed to go pick the boss up because she wouldn't drive home or get a taxi and her entire family were very very angry with her. She wouldn't drive because she doesnt trust the car to last, is now trying to buy a van because "Maybe she can sleep in it" quote:Claimed she would no longer be masking her ADHD because none of her staff does (once gain she thinks that means its ok for her to not do key work) Oh wait I forgot this part quote:Claims she knows she is because of her "Un-feminine ability to read a map" quote:(I) Went out at lunch to have a chat with one of our apprentices, who finally got left alone with the boss and got left to fend for her self all last weekend while she moped. Got back after it and the boss got upset that we had both left for lunch without saying (to which I said "lunch starts at 1" because gently caress her) These are all from THIS YEAR. This isnt even covering the 3 weeks last winter were we just didnt have phone, internet or running water. The time this year were I had to bust into her room after she left in a hurry and left a sink running on full blast for 3 days and found...bad stuff.. Last year's version of the fruit fly swarm. Her asking loudly if she thinks the two Ukranian refugees she's working on are ever going to go home. The Autoclave (an industrial sterilizer) clearly finally breaking down after 10+ years of use, which she then ignored and had us continue to use until I just couldn't complete a cycle, at which point she blamed me for not telling her that it was broken better somehow. Did I mention she had a manual for it and it was in machine translated English???? "it could have blown up, Shoe, and then I'd be homeless!" How was I going to clean my gear in the mean time? oh she wanted me to soak it in alcohol instead (I didn't do that) She has her new one on finace, it took a month to arrive after she finally ordered it (about 3 weeks after the old one broke), I started taking time off to do trial days in other shops and got a heap of training My wife is coming home now so I'm gonna go hang out with her and discuss our future.  E: Oh and I should say at no point did we ever lose a utility because it wasn't paid for, it's just kind of a lovely old building. What WOULD happen though is that she would be afraid to call anyone on the phone and would hope we would volunteer to impersonate her on the phone instead. So it would drag out for weeks She regularly goes cold in her own home/shop because she's too scared to phone for a bottle of natural gas Shoehead fucked around with this message at 22:47 on Nov 10, 2023 |
