I'm irritable...and venting...because it's my blog and I can do whatever the heck I feel like!

I'm very irritable today. More specifically, irritated by my boss. And I'm pretty sure that my hormones are only playing a small role. Seriously.

There are many of her qualities I simply overlook but today I just can't. She is choosing to let a person in my office go (not me) in order to hire someone else. Not because she's doing a bad job. Not because anything has happened. Simply because she like the other person better. She LOVES the new person (and don't get me wrong, I do too- but that doesn't make it right.) She's trying to justify her choice and that irritates me even more.

When people must justify their choices to make themselves look and feel better about the situation, doesn't that say something?

It's shady.

On top of that, she didn't even have the decency or courtesy to tell her in person. Along with some chocolates, she told her in a Valentine's Day card that as of Monday the 23rd, so and so would be replacing her and she would be missed. It's like breaking up with someone in a text message.

It's SHADY.

It makes me sad that this is the type of person I work for. It makes me not want to work for her. I've been praying about working after Emma arrives. I want to be home with her and Ethan. If I had to keep only one job, each day I lean more and more away from this one.

I don't have enough control of my current emotions to speak to her about it rationally so I'm sitting quiet for now. It's hard but better than me running my mouth. Though I am finding it hard to even look at her nicely.

So glad tomorrow is Friday.

That's terribly tacky that she did that. Hey, that's what your blog is for though, because it makes you feel better to vent. I hope everything works out and you get to stay home!
