:eek: Okay I needed to come to you all and vent, because I KNEW if anyone would understand, you would!!!! Since I went back to work my seizures have become more frequent, but I feel better about myself and am in the process of upping my Topamax (which has been very rough on me!!)

My co-worker (whom I thought was a really good friend!) wants more hours. He talked to the big bosses and he got told no. I get more hours than him, so he decided to go to the really big boss and tell him he felt that this job was stressing me out and causing me problems and maybe my hours should be backed down to help me out. (He doesn't know that Paul (the big boss) knows all about my history and that he just barked up the wrong tree :nono: ) What a jerk!!! He doesn't know a thing about me or my health issues, how dare he!!!!!!!!!!!! But the thing is, I got this info confidentially, so I can't treat him like I know and its killing me. I worked with him today and he made me look bad in front of my new boss, I ripped him after he was gone. Thats not like me, but enough is enough. I know I'm good at what I do, but I do have seizures occasionally.. thats something I can't help. My stress level is beyond what I can handle, not just from this but other things too, so that in itself is not good. But how do I handle him? Guys I'm at my wits end with stress and I know thats not good, need some good advice!!


Sorry I'm not around very much anymore, I sure do miss you all!!!!

I am so sorry that this coworker is such a nasty person!! He is very arrogant to try and do all this behind your back!!

VENT away, this is so unfair! Hoping the boss sees what a louse he is and PROMOTES you or something!! Hang in there!!

As if this weren't enough... last night on our way to taking our daughter to sign up for girl scouts we hit a deer :eek: !!!!! Everyone is okay (except the poor deer) but our car took a lickin'! Its drivable, but.... :confused:

My mom says we have no luck, it can't even be concerder (sp) bad because it goes past that point. I'm just at the point where I want to crawl into my bed and not face the world. I can't handle whats thrown at me anymore. People aren't who they pretend to be and things never go right.... I just can't keep this pace up!? But what do I do?

Lisa dont let them get there way. go in positive and show them you dont let it rule your life. I had them same problem. and went in with the attitude. I control it. it doesn't control me: and showed them . I also stick to: A disability is not a handicapp but a challenge to conquer. I worked in a operating theatre for 10 years and showed them. :wave:

Shane .... I know you're right, and usually I am very upbeat and positive..... I'm just on a slide down hill right know I guess and need a few days to find my balance. He just took me by surprise because when I have talked to him, he was fine with all precautions. And now I come to find out :nono: , but I have to shake this off, and bounce back to my old self!

Lisa

Hey Lisa,

Just wanted to let you know I've been thinking of you and hoping things are going better for you these past few days...

Don't let that guy get the worst of you, if you know what I mean! Sounds like he's up to something...keep a close eye on him! :eek:

I have been in management all of my life and if your managers are smart they will know when something is up. I could always tell when someone was trying too hard at something or would start to bad mouth another person. RED FLAGS went up right away. "What is this person up to? What do they stand to gain from what they are doing?" etc.

My brother is also in upper management and he has a very interesting saying that he abides by, "KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE AND YOUR ENEMIES EVEN CLOSER". Makes sense...has worked for him many times.

Take care and here's to better tomorrows! :)

Maybe you should get your corpus callosum cut so then you don't need to worry about seizures or a**holes like your co-employee.
