    I had a bad day and had leave at 4:00 PM.A guy in the engine machine shop pushed my buttons,getting me angry.I saw he was sitting around and having a smoke break every hour.I told him to get back to work and he told me this:Shut up bitch and I do not have to listen to a woman.I did file a complaint with my boss and he fired him.Parts came in and some were wrong parts.I ordered 3 gaskets sets,bearing sets and timing chain sets.The bearing sets were the wrong ones,cheap ones and I ordered high quality bearing sets.The person I talked to told me that their was none in stock and luckily the manager took care of it sending the high quality bearing sets.My boss did make some changes,no more every hour smoke breaks and smoking is prohibited inside the building knowing I am very allergic to cigarrette smoke and he is too.The final one was,one decided to put tacks on my chair and I blew up.My boss told me to leave and calm down for the day.The uy whom did this was put on probation for 3 weeks thinking it was funny.I have a doctor's appointment with my doctor tommorrow at 11:00 about my stress.

    I'm sorry you had a bad day. :frowning2:

    Go to a sauna or something. That'd be nice and relaxing.

    Ow your ass must hurt, I hate days like that, sometimes I have those and a don't even want to go to school, because I don't want to deal with people's shit, and I don't want to hear words like faggot or phrases like that's gay not that theyre aimed at me, I just don't want to hear it, so I stay home in bed

    But that sucks, lol Idk what gaskets are but... Hah

    Bailey, you are such a positive person. Don't let these low-lifes get to you. You obviously have a real passion for your job and deserve to be successful. Sounds like your boss is right there with you and will weed out the bad apples and soon things will be better.

    My boss is always there getting rid of the bad apples and he told me to report this right away taking care of it ASAP.I did see my doctor and my stress level is bad.I told my girlfriend Yasmine that I will go to yoga classes every Monday and Friday nights with her.She is excited and is glad I am doing this knowing this will relieve my stress.I know that I am a positive person and I do not need this to be ruined.

    My boss is ver supportive whom cares about and says I am a great supervisior.I did ask my doctor about Yoga and he said yes this is one way to relieve my stress.I had to call all 3 customers that their engines might be done next week Wendsday and Tuesday due to wrong parts recieved and they understand.My boss likes me becuase of my positive attitude and I am there for his 12 year old daughter.He has a 12 year old daughter whom will be 13 next week that looks up to me knowing she can do anything what any boy can do.This happen 3 years ago next month,she was hurt when she was told women are only good for being a housewife only.Luckily this happened when I start work for my boss 3 years ago,my boss told her about me and wanted to meet me.She looks up to me as her positive role model to this day and has told me that I changed her life in a positive way.

    One thing that I've found that helps me towards peace of mind is Mindful Meditation. There's books by Jon Kabat-Zinn. It starts with just paying attention to your breathing.Very calming.

    Well...the other thing is that it's always stressful to work with people that are STUPID.
    I define Stupid as not being open to any new way of doing anything and propagating ancient sexist attitudes like the guy who got fired.
    You sound like a great employee, your boss is lucky to have you. Yoga sounds great!!

    My girlfriend Yasmine told me about the books by Jon Kabat-Zinn and luckily she has them.I tried them and it has helped.My boss's daughter's name is Natalie and considers me one of her best friends.His daughter says I am a very cool Irish woman and I told her this 3 years ago: Keep your head up,focus in life and do not ever give up.
