I work at a forage lab that is a satellite from the main lab in another state. It is just me and the manager and someone filling in for now. Anyways we have a main manager at the main lab in the other state. Now I like the owner , my manager and what i do. I hate the main manager. he is such an idiot!! Today he called my manager and asked why i wasn't back at work yet. That according to HIS calendar I should have been back to work this week. He now wants a form faxed to him, from my doctor about my surgery and why I have to be out longer. I called him but of course he was out of the office so I left a very terse message for him. I had surgery and I have only been out for 3 weeks and I am to be out for 6 weeks. I will also have my doctor fax him when I will be back to work. Not only is this manager an idiot but they won't even pay me disability because I am only part time. So this put me in a very upsetting mood all afternoon which made me tired and ended up making my stomach hurt from the stress. I couldn't even pick up my cross stitching so I could relax. it took me 2 hours to calm down enough to sit and stitch. So I did work on Quilt Sampler for a few hours.
I am hoping to stitch on this tomorrow and Thursday and also to finish it on saturday. There is a reason i want to finish it on saturday and not any earlier. I stitch this as part of a SAL with Only One Ewe. We stitch together on saturdays and if we finish the piece on saturday then our name gets put into a drawing.
Anyways I also listened to Bungalow 2 by Danielle Steel. What happened in the book also depressed me because what happened in the storyline I was praying wouldn't and then it did. That didn't help my mood any LOL.
early afternoon I watched a movie with Scott called Here On Earth and we missed the beginning so I just ordered it from Netflix. The movie was so good. Then tonight I watched Gray Matters and I enjoyed that one as well.
I hope I can get sleep tonight and be calmed down in case the manager calls me. I can't even tell you all the crap that he has given us. He is supposed to be the owner's right hand man but they don't talk to each other so the owner will tell us one thing and the idiot tells us another.
Thank you for not stopping to read my vent. I don't do it often and I do appreciate all of my cyber friends.

Wow! What a great progress already!! Can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteThe Quilt Sampler looks terrific and I hope you make your goal to finish on Saturday. Glad you are able to vent here. Sure the idiot can't find an employee blog either. Take care CJ ok;-)
ReplyDeleteOh that quilt sampler is beautiful!! Keep going!! I'm cheering you on. ~ Dawn ~
ReplyDeleteShelleen, your Quilt Sampler is stunning! I'm happy that you were able to work on it, and relieve some of that unneeded stress. Worrisome events like that will only hinder a speedy healing.
ReplyDeleteI'm keeping my fingers crossed for you in the drawing!
Continue to take good care of yourself!!
Hugs!!
Quilt Sampler is almost done!!! I have so enjoyed watching your progress on this one!! I will be sad to see it end.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that you are going through what you are going through and your situation even makes it more stressful on your health as well too.
ReplyDeleteI hope in due time that you won't have anymore problems and that you will be able to stitch up a storm.
I just love to read your Blog and just hang in there.
I will keep you in my prayers.
Take care & Happy Stitching
Sorry to hear that you are having such an arse of a Manager
ReplyDeletebut your stitching is beautiful
Sorry you are having a hard time with the manager. Love the progress on the quilt.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't like what you hear from the Main Manager next time, would it be possible to talk to the owner? It's not as though you had just a teeny minor surgery.
ReplyDeleteYou're still in my thoughts. The progress you're making on all of your stitching is great!
The sampler looks great.
ReplyDeleteAs to the idiot, if he gives you a hard time, tell him you may have to have your doctor add another week or two because of the added stress he is causing. Maybe that will shut him up.
