I went to do a few errands today. In the dollar store someone said "Hi Jen". I didn't recognize her although she was familiar. It took prompting like I was a bit slow (she had lost about 50 lbs and dyed her hair) but the speaker was a former supervisor who kept telling me she was absolutely on my side and that I was being treated unfairly when her superiors were working hard to fire me. But after it happened she never had the grace to call me or indicate in any way that she wasn't entirely for firing me. They mailed most of my possessions back by dumping them out of their containers into a box with a small hole and some of my things did not make it back to me. They all hated me. I'm not saying I was doing a great job for them. I wasn't. They had requirements that were more difficult than average and I couldn't keep up well. But rather than trying to help or even listening to the OT who had evaluated me a year before when she came to talk to them about to help me work more effectively they sought out ways to fire me, catching me in errors that did not matter at all (or were not errors; at least one I was set up and another if I had pushed it with the OT board I would have won, plus that was done based on what the person I met today told me to do in her role as supervisor). The dumb thing is there were valid reasons to fire me had they only bothered to look. But anyway, it was totally uncomfortable and I still have no idea why she didn't let me just walk on past, focused on whether I felt like carrying 40 lbs of cat litter up 2 flights of stairs or if I would go somewhere tomorrow to get a reasonable size container. But I've been waiting to run into someone from that time since I moved here and now I have. I still think that unless she wanted to say something along the lines of "I'm sorry about what happened" she should have let me go on, but whatever. This is part of the reason I don't work now.
Tomorrow I finally see Dr. Mind. I am so ready for help dealing with all of this.Wednesday, September 04, 2013
