Today I freaked out and screamed at a friend/employee for something that wasn't his fault. He was so taken aback that I started crying in shame. He's never seen me do either so he was absolutely flabbergasted. I don't blame him at all. I'm sure he thinks I'm insane now. Me, the responsible, orderly one. The one who is always 10 minutes early, always works through breaks, and always tries to keep everyone in line.
This job is just too much for me anymore. The EXA will not stop making snide remarks and it's damaging my ability to enter district. At this point I don't even care. He leaves me so much extra work and if I don't complete it he tells the boss I am lazy. No justification, just comments, spoken in the right ears at just the right time. Then it gets back to me later when the boss asks me why I'm not doing enough. I work 12 hours straight, no breaks. By law I am required a minimum of 3 ten minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch but I skip them and run around like a little chicken with my head cut off to get my work done. The lists keep getting longer and I'm getting less and less sleep.
I'm starting to have fantasies of taking my .22 and putting a bullet in his head while he sleeps. Obviously I'm going insane. I need to get out, NOW. But I'm the only one making money and nowhere else is hiring for 40k a year in this poverty trap of a town. I can't make a penny less than I'm making if I want to make the house and car payments.
I feel so trapped.
