Hi

I guess I should do a catch-up, I was going to do posts for other interesting points in the last month but I can't really think of anything much except the last week or so it's been soooooooooooo stressful.
Well the car went "pop" again about 3 weeks ago and it took the garage a good 2 weeks to get it sorted to the extent that it runs but not what I say with confidence.
Work is a pig, the lady I had trouble with before is much worse - I learnt this week that it's not just me, although it does feel like she's bullying me. She left a message to adjust my times and I took it up with the boss as the day she told me to change was the day I could prove the times I worked as there was a meeting I went to!
Anyway boss man seemed to brush it under the carpet a bit, thankfully I have my yearly appraisal tomorrow and have notes I want to go through. I mean I'm doing my work and get told to do xyz and when I say there's no chance I can fit that in get told I have to anyway. Well there was no way and a week later was told I should do it in the afternoon so of course I stopped doing the other work I do and got "reprimanded" that there were soo many with my name on without notes - well I couldn't very well do them if I was doing something else, also to make it worse I was off for 2 half days so there was no chance of me doing anything much except desperately try to catch up. So I replied to an e-mail saying I couldn't and trying to lighten it up saying how even W woman can't do it if she's not in the office, well the reply that came back was very officious and "will be brought up in my appraisal". Why can't she just leave me alone for 2 months. Apparently there are now others who think she's becoming a bully/headmistress type too. Mind you I kinda feel sorry for my Team Leader as she's her friend and also she's about 6 months pregnant, so I can see she doesn't need the stress, but then neither do I.
Anyway the Dr took my blood pressure and it's up not badly but it's up from last time so I shall have to take it easier. I also (in 2 lines) said I was pressured at work by someone monitoring my timekeeping and workload - she basically came out with the fact that I was being bullied.
Well we shall have to see how tomorrow goes.
