Just a small request from you all for some healing, as I feel as I am going through hell and there is no return..

I started a new job last October..it seemed my dream job..well it has gone down hill rapidly and I am living a nightmare each :day..I could cry..

My career has tumbled into hell..my day consists of sitting behind a desk with the phone in my hand chasing money.. A job I detest, and was never told about when I took the positon..they lied so much to me..

I was in to work at 9.15am he told me I should be there at 9.00am.. I said I have no lunch breaks..he ignored me (my boss) told me I would have my probation extended.. (In my mind I was thinking ''He is the most awful/evil person I have met)

This is not a working environment to be happy..I am becoming ill..and I dont know what will happen.

I am trying to remain positive and have applied for 20 new jobs, but this is London and hard..

He is away until Monday..and I so do not want to go to work on Monday..

I feel like a have a huge curse on me...

A little help from my friends here would be appreciated.

It sounds from the small story here that approaching the boss to talk about the difference between the job you were promised at interview and your current tasks is a non-starter. if though, you think it would help give it a try.

And no lunches?? Do you know that for every 4 hours you work you are legally entitled to a 20 minute paid break?

Have you got a contract? If so, get it out and have a good read - does it outline (in the job description) a job with tasks different to those you're being asked to do? If that's the case that's got to be wrong. I'm no legal eagle, but a contract is between two people, not just one. I reckon it's time to go down to the job centre - make an appointment - and talk to someone. Outline your position - be honest, take your cv, and ask for help. Ask about income support, help with rent too. If you don't have a contract, you don't have to give notice and therefore you could start a new job - ANYTHING, tomorrow. that day, even! In fact, I'd get down there asap anyhow. Sounds like you need to get outa there.

All that of course is what I'D do, and I'm not you, but Sunny, you really don't have to spend all your days doing something that eats your heart out. Yeah, we all have to work crap jobs time to time, as stepping stones, but you can and you will find a way through this and leave the nasty boss behind.

Chin up, be strong and focused. You're Sunny! Good luck xxx

I started the job,  the girl before me, left with a 1 day handover..could not stand the Boss no more..

The Financial Controller had a breakdown, he had been there since August, left Beginning November, he was the nicest person you could work with..The Boss made his life hell.

I had my apraisal Friday, he asked did I have a contract? I said no..oh he said, it must be in that heap of paperwork on the floor!!..I think that says it all..

I did think that if there is no contract I could leave without notice.. I am holding on, by a string...and hope something will come up.. My job agency phoned and I explained the situation...they have put me forward for a more suitable job..so fingers crossed..

I cannot go through this again..I am still grieving for my Mother who passed away from cancer a year ago...

Thank you again for all support..it's nice to have somewhere to share thoughts with..

I will let you know my outcome...I will remain positive  and keep applying for new jobs.

and clutch to my crystal for support,..

I am sure there is Pyshic attack against me.. My last job I worked for Chinese people they were awful as well..Mum was dying and I missed her last rites in hospital as they said I was having to much time to visit her...I had to work until six and got to he @ 11.00pm she was in Oxford and I travelled from North London by Train..

You spend 35 years of your life with your Mother..you want to be there at the end..,

I have never forgiven myself for this and NEVER forgive them..

Soo as you can see I get pretty sad moments..

Good luck finiding something more suitable, eh?  What line of work are you in...or rather, meant to be in?

There are thing you notice in this life and things you don't.   When you notice and acknowledge the important things in life you enrich it.   When you notice and acknowledge the unimportant things in this life it proves you pay attention.  When you do neither what are you????  

I am supposed to be a Assistant Accountant/Senior Bookkeeper....right now general telephone goffer.

To be honest I got through today..but on the verge of walking out shortly..The Boss from hell is away till Monday..he has decided to move me to another ofice, leaving me without my 2 friends...

Even my agency feel sorry for me and have apologised for placing me there..it's not their fault...the Man has 2 faces.

I have spoken to the MD..who is having a few major problems with this Man...the MD said he was being shafted...I gave copies of all bank statements to the MD to see what the evil boss is up to..

Luckily the lovely MD is going to give me a good reference, as I had a confidential chat with him today..so that is something positive..!!
