Q: Super Vent

Okay. I made a really big boo-boo by overlooking a water bill. I got the situation straightened out with no shut-offs or anything like that. I simply had to put a rush on the check. Now however my boss is coming up here to visit me on thursday and friday of this week and I can't help but wonder if i'm going to get the axe. Other than the fact that i'd be in a whole heap of trouble in my living situation and that it would embarass the heck out of me, I don't think that I would really care too much. I'm soooo upset though that they would do something like that because I overlooked one water bill. I mean i've freaking dedicated my d@mn life to making sure everything goes smoothly at my site. I don't like being checked up on so I do my work so that no one has to check up on me. If this is a check up visit then i'm pissed. I forgot one bill. I caught it in time. What about the other 375 bills that I processed last month that were on time? If she's coming up to fire me then i'm going to be even more pissed. I have no, and I mean no disciplinary actions against me. I've never had to be reprimanded for anything. Why is she coming to bother me? Let me work and don't visit, I don't want to develop ulcers. Now this other thing with dh, I think he might have snuck a peak at my emails yesterday and saw some things that he shouldn't have seen because he was trying to be super, super nice to me. He didn't even go to the gym yesterday and let me take a quick jog after work like I used to. I'm pleased with that little bit of progress but not enough to stay with him. I'm still looking for jobs, still looking for houses. So if you guys hear of anything keep me posted. I now officially have no idea where I want to move to.


*ps, if my life keeps up this way, i'm going to have to be hospitalized for depression*

Aww, .Kay i'm sorry your going through all of this. I wish there was something I could do to help you. As for work, .I don't think you'll be let go...You sound like a very good, dedicated employee and they'd be screwed without you. And if they don't realize that, then that's their problem and it's gonna feck them over in the long run...Not you. But .I think someone just has a big head and feels the need to check in on you.
As for .Miguel...Maybe he'll come to the conclusion you aren't gonna caca around and you mean business and he needs to step up to the plate and do his role as a husband and a father.
*hugs* it's always the good people that go through the sh.Itty times...It's so unfair.

I know that you don't know me. But I have been lurking here for quite some time. I know that you are going though a rough time, and wanted to give you some hope. I work in an accounting office. Not only was I the accounts payable manager, I was the entire accounts payable department. (it was a new division) well, I overlooked a power bill for one of my branches. They ended up getting their power turned off. Well, I was able to fix the problem quickly. However, I was called into my bosses office. I knew that I was getting fired. They said that they understood that accidents happen. They wanted to know if it were a one time thing, or I was getting overwhelmed. Well, long story short, they ended up hiring in an assistant. So maybe they're just checking to if you need an extra hand. Keep your chin up!

I can't imagine they would give you the axe for one mistake. Unless it is a big huge boo boo. Usually there is a formal process that needs to happen, oral reprimand, written warning explaining the issue, corrective action, and what will happen if performance doesn't improve. Then the axe falls.
Maybe you will get an assistant, or a paid vacation!!!

I have to agree with everyone in that I don't think your boss will give you the axe for a one time mistake, unless he or she has gone mental. You solved the situation very quickly and seemed to have handled it well. That deserves a pat on the back not you being fired. I would be a nervous wreck until that day. Not knowing the reason for the visit would cause me to lose it. I am so sorry you have to go through this right now. You really didn't need this. I just hope that it is good news. Does your boss do random visits?? Perhaps that's it, just horrible timing?

I think you and I are really sensitive to everything lately because everything just just keeps piling on us. Perhaps I will join in a hospital.

I also don't know where I am going to move to. I am thinking idaho.
