Thanks! > Nicci Hey now....dont you even consider leaving a job you love because these two grown ass women are behaving badly. I would absolutely suggest being the squeaky wheel and asking someone who is in charge of making these decisions/who knows EXACTLY what happened to meet with ALL of you and explain the sequence of events. Be brutally honest and tell them how you are being treated and that you do not feel its fair to have to work with that added stress everyday. Dont even consider the possible reprecussions for them being called on their awful behavior because frankly they havent shown any regard for your feelings or well being so NO GUILT for you in standing up for yourself. Believe me Nicci if you dont care enough to stand up for yourself nobody else will. Also as you have already seen, this added stress has not been good for you in staying with your plan and sticking with your routine and they absolutely should not have that much power over you and your life. As Dr Phil has said so often we teach people how to treat us and they obviously need a good lesson hon. Hang in there gal..and let us know how things turn out for you. GREAT job maintaing too by the way and for breaking the daily weighing habit!! GOOD FOR YOU!! Hugs Shan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2003 Report Share Posted June 5, 2003 Thanks so much Shan! I started to cry when I read this because you are soooo right!! And I have let this totally throw me off all week long, I've eaten terrible and feel like absolute poop right now. I have made a promise to myself to not let them have this power over me to destroy my plan and I have worked too hard to get this weight off to let 2 insignificant witches ruin it for me!!! Thanks so much for the kick in the butt!! Tomorrow is a brand new day and I'm back on track!! THANKS!!! As for my placement for next year, I had already made up my mind that I was going to put that one into the hands of the director at school. I marched into her office and told her that I had been experiencing some flack about my choices for next year, and that I wanted to take it all back and just let her and the teachers decide my fate. She told me that I am one of the best ed techs there and to just tell her who I want to work with and consider it done because I get first dibs. She said that the other girls are jealous of me for several reasons. Mostly because I am so good at what I do. And a lot of people work with these kids and get run down, whereas I don't because I have such a good understanding of autism and the kids I deal with that I have an endless supply of patience and understanding (little does she know that it does get to me, I just don't show it!!) So when others see someone working with the hardest kids year after year and always coming off as cool, calm, and collected it makes them crazy! I was sooooooo happy to hear those words come from the directors mouth, what a huge compliment from a lady that I respect soooooo much!! So I told her my #1 choice she said he's yours! Well, I am sooooo happy now! And with that and your kind words of common sense, I'm good to go!!!!!! Thanks Shan!!

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 Nicci, That is so terrific. I am so glad you got that wonderful feedback from your director. And bless you for the good works you do with children. HUGS Peace, Jen N. There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is though everything is a miracle. --Albert Einstein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
