well its all gone tits up again! i seem to attract this sort of thing, i think its because i dont stand up for myself i let people walk all over me and i just go along with it. i worked for a friend of mine, i earnt barely minimum wage and worked when ever she wanted me often with overtime for no extra pay. i worked on my own with out complaining and ran the yard pretty damn well! held the fort down whilst they all went off competing in europe for weeks at a time and never complained. my earnings were minimal but i had a roof over my head and on the most part i put on a happy front. i was incredibly lonely and physically shattered and eventually decided to leave after being offered a job in my old office on a very good wage and normal hours. giving my notice was the hardest thing ive ever had to do and i tryed to leave on good terms.
In my time there i was sort of the buffer between my boss and her liveries quite a hard job as boss liked everything done one day wether it satisfied the needs of the liveries or not. the liveries were allowed two sections of hay a day summer or winter no more but less if they could get away with it, bedding was run on a similar basis you got your quota and questioned when you asked for more. because thats how its done. i knew one of the liveries was very un happy and she left just after i did. I stayed in contact with my boss and two of the other liveries as we were good friends after leaving and they invited me on a fun ride this sunday just gone. on saturday im at the yard and i get a text from one of the liveries saying shes coming to look round my yard. sunday the other livery tells me shes leaving too and moving the horse near her partner. in both cases this is news to me but i understand their reasoning. on sunday at the fun ride the horses were looking poor (admitted by the owners) on top of their livery they were having to supplement their horses measley diet with more and more hay and hayledge, their beds were apparently ******, their horses moved stables without owners being informed and the fields often had no water. i then get a phone call tonight from the ex boss accusing me of stealing her liveries, breaching contract (still havent worked out what thats about) and basically telling me im a penny pinching b***h! btw i now have an office job and keep my horse on livery so quite how i have stolen her liveries is beyond me.
so thats it 2+2 makes 5 and they are happy with that and when you can do what you want what does it matter about the truth! a long term friend of mine who even after i left was sending business her way has shown her true colours. get to the top at what ever cost! im finding my self doing alot of evaluating lately. am thinking i might become a recluse and only talk to my horse. because thats the only way things cant get misconstrude. im more hurt that they would think i would do that - that is compleetly not my personality atall, i am a self confessed people pleaser, i dont cause trouble very easy going and go with the flow but im begining to think it follows me :/
Ho Hum life goes on!
