stress is getting me down......

hi there whengcat, what you have posted is really stressing. it is difficult to deal with a boss who is hard to please. that no matter how hard you try, still, your boss cannot appreciate your effort. in this regard, better to have a way on how to relieve your stress. perhaps, try to look for another job since the criticism in your office drowns you. in that way, you can be able to breathe.

Uhh, this should be stressing...I can't imagine to have a boss like that, I may have the same self pity to myself as well. If I were you I may take a target to quit and try to look for another job, if within my target time I still don't find a new job, I may will still give a letter of resignation after all, since in that stressful sitution it's only the matter of time until my health starts deteoriting....And health is valuable. So I suggest you to set a target time limit to find another job and quit when time is suitable.

If the situation is that bad, the best thing you can do is find another job. I know that's easier said than done, but seriously consider it. No one, not even a boss, has the right to make you feel so badly. We are not meant to live under such negative influence.
