You're right - it's terribly sad to get the word from Mother Nature that it's time to pack up your tent and move on.
They might put a bug in the owner's ear about the problems between you and Lisa, or suggest that the owner talk to you one on one.Īt the same time, you can launch a quiet job search to see what else is shaking in your local talent market. You could get in touch with your former boss and ask for their advice. I would give the owner a chance to make things right, if I were you. They would never have grown the company to its current size and standing by making bad management decisions. She may need a lot more coaching than she is currently getting. Your news from the front ("Lisa is incompetent and fearful, and trying to push me out") may be just what your company owner needs to hear to realize that Lisa is not as qualified for her leadership role as she originally seemed to be. The company owner may be giving Lisa a lot of reinforcement and latitude specifically because she isn't working out as well as she was expected to. However, in my experience when somebody like Lisa seems to have a halo on their head, it's often just the opposite. You think it is a last-ditch, desperate move to go over Lisa's head to your company's owner and anyone can understand why you would feel that way. Your situation sounds terribly stressful but you will sail past this obstacle on your path, I predict. Sign up here to get top career advice delivered straight to your inbox every week.

It's pretty clear she is trying to get me to quit, or put me in a position where I fail and she can fire me. She gives me idiotic assignments to complete and impossible deadlines. This job is perfect for me but Lisa is making it impossible for me to stay. I took this job because I didn't want to manage a team anymore. I wanted to be an Account Manager when I took this job. I think one reason Lisa hates me is because I had her exact job at my previous company. Lisa had no use for me from the first time we met. My original manager got transferred to a different office and Lisa came in to replace her. My co-workers are awesome too, but I have one huge problem. Our customers are amazing people who work for blue-chip firms. I only order it when my husband isn't going to be around for 24 hours so I can fart in peace.I'm an Account Manager for a marketing consulting firm. "I've never farted in front of my husband-at least that I'll admit-but sometimes I have a gas problem, especially when I order this one dish I love from a Mexican takeout place near my house that's loaded with onions. It's kind of weird, but I guess I'm just curious to see what he's talking about and who he's talking with when he's not with me." - Katie "Sometimes, I'll check out my husband on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and spend time looking at what he posted. I've never found anything even remotely off, but that doesn't stop me from looking around his inbox and sent folder every once in a while." - Sarah "My husband never logs out of his e-mail when he's done and sometimes even leaves it up on our computer. Here's what I discovered (the names have been changed to protect the not-so-innocent): Just to be positive (because I really, really don’t want to give up my onesie), I took a survey of my married girlfriends. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who has little habits that I keep from my other half. While I was mortified, it still hasn't stopped me from doing the same thing every time he's out of town.
