Strain

Now, the preceding stories probably don't seem all that bad on the whole. I am not being physically abused, I am not being called "mentally retarded" as was a friend of mine at abohter job this week.

All in all, though, dealing with a person like this takes its toll. Day after day, you wait and wonder when it will all come crashing down. When is she (MSB) going to finally push me just far enough that I can't deal anymore?

It is the unpredictability that is that grinds at you the most. Yesterday she ordered Paul to do something and he said he didn't think it was a good use of their time. She said "I am not asking you, I am telling you to do it." Two hours later as he still worked on the assignment she asked him what he was doing and he showed her.

"That's stupid. It's a waste of time. Don't spend your time on that."

As I said earlier, it's a race to the end for the two of us now. . .
