Get to work this morning. Boss in a VERY bad mood. Tells me off for mucking out badly when I was last in - friday. I knew on Friday I did such a muck out that I even lifted the rubber mats and cleaned out from under them - so she would perhaps be grateful for it over the w/end when I knew she was on her own. So, she Proceeds to tell me how to do it, then says she will have to give me a lesson in doing so. Now, this is a huge insult for me. I pride myself on my job, and know how to muck out stables! Been doing so for years, and apart from this, not one person has said that I suck at it! I'm usually the one who offers others tips on doing a good job. So, anyway, I tell her I'm deeply offended and don't agree with 'my badness'. She then lets rip at me for 'speaking my mind', and I tell her if she wasn't happy with it, she should have told me so on friday, and perhaps asked me to go in early on Sat to rectify the problem.
Then of course, as usual I get upset (which for some reason I have a huge issue with - I simply can't control my emotions.) And low and behold I continue to get lectures about keeping my emotions and feelings to myself, which I would love to be able to do!!
Ended up saying if she didn't approve of me on these 'petty' grounds, then perhaps I should leave. She told me that no one has ever spoken to her like that, and I'm treading on egg shells.... which by this point I knew I was.
I carried on with my work, and didn't see her after this. Now feeling pretty rubbish about it all TBH...
Any hugs going?
