<prompt> Human: Background: Long story short, I got great performance reviews for three years. I have them all in writing. I started being upset at my boss for pulling crappy stuff of people and started standing my ground. Hed do stuff like tell us to do one thing in private, then blast us in front of the higher ups for doing what he said. If you took the beating, he mostly left you alone. Well, I stopped taking the beating. I said Im sorry sir, I was under the impression that you wanted this since you told me two days ago during our meeting that you specifically wanted it this way. Obviously I misunderstood when you explicitly said XXX. How should I have interpreted that so I dont make this mistake again?Well that was dumb on my part. But I did it. And ever since hes been giving me horrible directions. Every review is shit. Everything I do is wrong. And then I made an actual mistake in a project and hes used that minor mistake to trumpet See! See, I told you she was incompetent. Basically Ill be likely fired in the next two weeks. ---Financials: - Savings: 7,000 - 401k: 35,000 fully vested - Car: 12,000 paid of 26,000 car - Current Expenses: 2700 month - Current Income: 3600 monthI had an emergency stash of 15,000 but I put money down on the car after I was in a wreck a few months ago. Stupid I know. At the time I was in good standing at work. Paying off a loan from family, younger years debts, and school loans. I could reasonably trim my expenses to 2200 a month by talking to family and lack of drivingbeing out. Im interviewing everywhere I can. Im saving what I can. ---Edited for clarity. ---Rant not in any way finance related:But this shit is driving me crazy. He knows he has power over me. He knows this is stressing me out. Hes doing this for the fun of it. He actually smiles when you go to him for help or to discuss a problem. When he slams you under the damn bus, he smiles. Hes a sick sadistic person. He was supposed to meet with me about my future and when I asked to reschedule legit conflict, he declined. So I juggled the other issues and got to the meeting. He didnt show for 45 minutes. I knew Id be fired if I left, so I tried calling and texting him after the first 10 min. No response. I was doing work from my phone so I wasnt wasting time. I sent a ranting text to a work friend and she told me she saw him. He was wandering around the fucking facility just chatting with people. He finally came back and said oh youre still here. Weve got to discuss your attitude problem. You wanted to reschedule this meeting for no reason. me: no, I said in the email that there was a conflict with another meeting, so I asked if you would reschedule. Him: no you didnt. So I pulled out the email. And he said Well, you should have known this was too important to reschedule. Learn to communicate more. I was in an important meeting. Which he wasnt. Then I got blasted fr wasting time waiting in his office. I told him I completed two phone meetings and was writing up a report from my phone while waiting. Oh, so you were going to just leave me waiting if I showed up in the middle of one of those meetings? He then went of about a project I did in February and how he didnt like it, and blasted me for continuing to do my projects that way. He told me I did a great job back in February. Its been five months. I cant eat right. I live ten hours from family. I moved here for this job. I cant sleep. I hate my life.  <response>: Honestly if you can deal with the shit for a little while longer you might be okay - having to deal with garbage at work is tough, but if you can feel differently about the situation Which isnt maybe what you want to hear - see Stephen Coveys 7 Habits of Highly Effective People you can line yourself up for another job. Deal with your bosses BS and be dont let it get to you, respond with kindness and accept that it will be this way. Begin applying elsewhere. It doesnt seem that your boss wants to fire you - otherwise heshe would have already but really gets off on the power play.And if your boss is doing these things, there should be someone else, such as HR, that you can talk about this to. Im pretty sure that this is harassment on some level.EDIT: On a finance level trim, trim, trim, to 2200 immediately and be ready to eat into your savings if need be. Pay absolute mins on the debts to keep them up to date if that will save you more. Double check your car insurance coverage and shop around to see if you are really getting the best rate. Reduce Cell phone bill by using WIFI and not data, possibly pay off your phone if you are on a payment plan. If you have any subscriptions like Netflix, amazon etc. cancel them and choose only one. If you have a gym membership, consider killing it and doing at-home exercises or yoga via YouTube. If you have TV, switch to using internet services only. My monthly bill for food is around 240.00 when I am eating well groceries, around 180.00 if eating smart. Take a look at your grocery planning and see how you can stretch the budget, dont go out for food,dont buy coffee etc.Trim a lot of the little things and youll save tons. By purchasing a different, more economical used car, removing all the small things in my budget i reduced my monthly costs by over 650.00. it really adds up.
