Lost My Job and Doubting Myself

[BonesMS]

It appears that my soon-to-be X-boss is a narcissist after all.

My brand new immediate supervisor was making an observation about how the Division Director seems to just LOVE the sound of his own voice while refusing to listen to anyone.  (Before I tendered my resignation, he would say "hello".  Now that I am leaving, he acts as if I'm not even in the room with him!)  To make matters worse, this N-Division Director also happens to be a psychologist!!!  In my opinion Narcissistic Psychologists and Narcissistic Psychiatrists are the WORST!!!!!!

I also did something today I probably should not have done.  I realized that one of my ex-boyfriends is an N who just LOVES to use people for his own gratification.  When I came across his e-mail address, I sent him my graduation picture without any comment.  I gave in to the urge to just rub his nose in it since he never bothered to go to college because he wasn't interested. I wanted to thumb my nose at him and tell him that I've moved on and succeeded in achieving my goal in spite of his nonsense towards me.

Bones,

You didn't say how your last day went... yesterday, right?

Mixed feelings?

When do you start the new position? I didn't read back... feeling very bleh-tired today.

(((((((((Bones))))))))  I hope that all is well.

With love,
Hope

My last day on the old job was FULL OF SURPRISES AND LAUGHTER!!!  My now-former colleagues gave me a very sweet card and wished me luck in my new job.  The C.O.'s and the inmates were clowning around to the point that they had me laughing until I was crying.  As I was walking across the prison yard for the last time, ALL of the inmates came out of their treatment dorm to yell "Good Bye", "Good Luck", "Don't Go!", "We'll Miss You!", cheering, etc.  I wanted to cry!!!!

BTW, I also started my new job that same evening.  It's a bit hectic as I'm learning additional skills that I had not done before.

aww (((((((Bones))))))))  what a wonderful (and bittersweet!) sendoff they gave you!  I am sure that you will be greatly missed there.

Starting your new job that same day had to be quite the challenge! I hope the hectic part of it eases up soon as you learn these new skills and that the people there are kind and cooperative to you.
You seem to love the learning so much... but I also know how stressful such changes can be. Please take good care of yourself.

With love,
Hope

I'm making a point of taking care of myself today.  I gave myself a L-O-N-G overdue session of pampering by having my feet, legs and lower back massaged by a massage therapist.  (I had been dealing with painful spasms virtually every day while I was at the prison job.  The therapist commented that my body was dealing with stress and toxins and that last job was, indeed, T-O-X-I-C!)  By the end of the session, I was FINALLY able to move freely WITHOUT pain!!!!  It felt SO GOOD!!!!!!!     Tomorrow morning, I'm giving myself my very first ear candling session!  I'm looking forward to just laying down and relaxing while the therapist does what she does best!     (I am so glad that this spa is so close to home!)

BTW, I spoke with one of my former colleagues and learned that one of my former new bosses just quit after he was on the job for only about a week!  I'm not surprised!  Right before I left, he and I had a good, long talk about my reasons for resigning.  I outlined EVERYTHING that I had been dealing with since Day One and he commented that the job was doing to me what his last job did to him.  I told him don't let this toxic organization screw him over the same way it did me (i.e. trainee hours, credentials, etc.).  Looks like he took my advice and BEAT FEET!!!!!!  (Exactly one week before my last day, another brand-new employee worked for only 8 hours then promptly quit the morning of what would have been her second day on the job!  That should be SCREAMING VOLUMES to someone on the upper levels of management but N-O-O-O-O!!!!!  They keep insisting on doing the same things over and over again expecting different results!)  I am S-O-O-O GLAD that I am OUTTA THERE!!!!!!!!

Wow, Bones... definitely sounds like you got out of that place just in time!

You sure would think they'd get a clue.... sheesh.
 I just hope nobody else gets seriously harmed in all that blind stumbling around goin on over there.

Hey, that massage stuff sounds delicious    I'm so glad to hear you're treating yourself well and enjoying some R & R!
You deserve it!!

Hugs,
Hope

You sound so much happier now that you broke out of prison!     I'm happy for your happiness and the new job.
