boss sigh

[Guest guest]

Hi all

what a day it was going well then my boss who has been complained

about by a customer again, send me emails at home then another

manager, I was not scheduled to work today and they keep sending

them to my private email address. The occupational therapist who, is

monitoring my return to work e.g. hours etc, told him in writing and

at last weeks meeting not to do this. I just ended up in tears they

are sending work home to my own email address now. I opened it an

hour ago like 10 30 at night and have been upset ever since

My partner's reaction is well quit then which just makes me more

upset, this is happening each weekend.

The return to work is as a result of a work accident I don't know

what to do, all this does is stress me right out and make my

headaches and sleep worse.

The doc offered to give me antidepressants but I dotn want to go on

those again

I know it's not a true fix, but you could always say you changed

your email address because you were getting too much spam *L*

I don't know what else to offer except to go back to the woman who

is monitoring your hours. Ask if he can be put on a written warning

or something.

Secondly, don't open your emails from your boss after 3pm of an

afternoon, if at all. At least in doing that you can make contact

with someone to complain about it then and not worry about it

through the night.

Thirdly, write an email back to your boss reminding him that you are

restricted to such and such hours for work due to your injuries

therefore, would he please not send any extra work, especially to

your private email address...

Just an aside...surely him sending company business to your private

emails would be unethical and against company policy? ...invasion of

privacy sort of thing even though you are an employee? I wouldn't

want anything to do with my business being sent to an employee's

personal email address. Would automatically think that my

information / details were being made PUBLIC knowledge...that could

be an avenue to follow up on Debs...and if that does change and they

go to your work email only, then ONLY open it during the hours you

are to work. Be tough on yourself to not be tempted to open any

emails from work during your personal time.

If you are on restricted hours with permission from compo or work

rehabilitation or whatever, he legally can't have you fired because

of that. I would also be making another written report to the

authority figures that he is blatantly ignoring all the previous

requests and advisements etc..

Hi

Thanks, change me email address haha it's a goodie.

I have gone back to the woman monitoring it and copied her the

emails etc

They have also written on my medical report that the boss is not

complying and it is causing issues with my return to work e.g. he is

exacerbating the symptoms

The one about opening the emails after 3pm is good, it just was bad

when I opened them at home at 10 30 at night then didn't sleep and

it caused me stress all weekend,

Col's response is just cruise, he wants to solve it but it doesn't

have an easy solution and he's not great to talk with re this sigh

I will write another email to him reminding him as you said of the

work accident and not to send to my private address etc.

Its all sound advice thanks and yes I will write a warning back

Thanks a lot
