My boss is unreachable always when she answers the phone it's with a brusque 'what'→[More:]

never gives benefit of the doubt so i am always anticipating and walking on eggshells

husband not interested in anything sexually except pump and thrust (this not the way he was before)

this smile is plastered on my face and the plaster is burning away my skin on the other side

i slit the throat of 'hang in there'

how about if i stay alive for the next year, somebody who claims to want me alive buys me an iphone or something

disclaimer: this is all a joke etc i am not a harm to myself or others

and no i am not asking for an iphone from you guys or anybody else, don't worry.

I'm so afraid that one day they're gonna kick me off this website for being too negative.

I feel inadequate because I'm not sure what pump and thrust is. Hang in there!

Yes, perhaps "hang in there" is not what you need to hear repeated for the twentyninethousandth time.
It
is
just
a
wee
bit
annoying.

What a terrible thing for your boss to do. How toxic.

Keep breathing, Grace. Keep breathing.

Miserable people really can be taxing Grace. It's not your fault you can't stand it.

Like halonine says, keep breathing. None of us are perfrect.

Timely.

thank god they don't seem to have an office-bullying culture where I currently work. I mean, above and beyond the psychological damage, that shit is career-wrecking.

Baby,^*, you have a long way to go before you catch up with me, so don't sweat it!

Apart from the boss thing, I'm with you all the way and could raise you a few levels except that people here are sick off me whining about my life. If it helps, things could be much worse. Trust me on this.

* The term "baby" is not intended to cause offence and it meant to be taken in a humorous light. I know you're not my baby etc etc etc.

Hubby issue - take charge now and then. Show him what you want. Tell him what you want. You gotta put yourself out there a little, but he'll probably love it.
