Today, I realized I'm so scared of my manager that I don't even dare to quit my job. The same job I want to quit exactly because I'm so scared of her. FML

outthelabyrynth tells us more.

First things first: I'm a girl, and I'm not a prostitute. (That would pay much better, though) I work at a restaurant with several managers who are all quite nice, but she's the boss of the whole restaurant so she's in charge of everything. Now the thing is, she's quite nice to everyone... Except to me. I don't know what she has against me, but working with her is like getting a constant shitstorm over you. Always mean comments, giving me the worst tasks, and no matter how I improve myself, it's never good enough. She keeps telling me I'm too stupid to work there (which I'm not, I have higher qualifications than everyone there, but I need the money to save up for college) and when other people make a mistake, she blames me for it. At this restaurant, when you want to quit, you have to tell her personally. The worst she can do is indeed yell at me. I'm not a shy person, but when people get angry at me or start yelling, I get really quiet and submissive and I feel like shit. I'll probably search for another job first, and then make up a believable story for why I want to quit, so she can't get too mad at me. Thanks for all the support and I'll do my best to stand up!

Just quit and then RUN. You can make it OP :)

Unless you work for a bounty hunting firm, firm up and quit. Being so scared at work is hardly worth it.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Verbal abuse in the workplace is never on - why hasn't that been pointed out yet? You definitely need to look up your country's laws on this and file some kind of report. Stick it out until you can screw her over!

That sounds like discrimination if that is true

well it looks like your only solution at this point is to sleep with her in order to overcome your fear. godspeed.

It sounds like your getting bullied. It's a lose/win situation. Stay and get treated like crap or go find a better job where your skills are appreciated. It's time to get your dignity back

What's she going to do if you quit? I'd think she has more to do that to stalk you. Is there not someone higher up that you can talk to? There has got to be a way.

man up OP...just make sure you have a back up job and then quit...If you are quitting do not worry about what others say...it might be scary but in the end remember **** it, I'm still quitting. ..or if u don't care about having a smear on ur record, just no call no show till they fire you...sucks but it does happen

I know how you feel I'm going thru the same thing

You should go over your boss to a higher power and express your feelings

Just write on a bev nap "**** you, I quit" sign with your first name and leave it somewhere that she will see it. I did that when my boss wanted me to clean up a mess his son made that basically trashed the restaurant.
