just not able
How I hate writting this and admitting I just can't hold a job. I have been on this new job for a little over three months. Things were going good, I thought, until there was a shake-up and I got shifted to a new boss. I can't seem to get anything right any more. She is a type-A personality and I am not. I can't deal with the feeling I am being pressured and now my tummy is going bad. Good-bye job, hello crohns. My stomach hurts, I pass gas, I am depressed.
I feel so damned useless...

Please don\'t beat yourself up. One of the worst thing for crohns is stress, and like me it sounds like you get job stress and want/need to move on. Is your new boss someone you can talk to about just needing to take things calmly and at your own pace? If not, you must remember that your first priority and obligation is yourself and your health. Jobs will always come and go, but us crohnies need to try to get as much balance and calm as possible in as many areas of our lives as we can, simultaneously.
I know, easier said than done :) I stopped work, myself, 3 weeks ago to take time out to try to recover.
You\'re not useless, ok? Just ill. There\'s a difference. Be kind to yourself.

When we were doing our training I stated if I was assigned to this boss I would say thanks for the opportunity but no thanks, and gotten on a plane to come home. It is all pressure w/her. She thinks her job is purely to find fault. I can\'t work under those conditions as I am a field worker and must have confidence I can call her in an emergency. There is no way in hell I can call her. Going into \"the field\" is now like walking a wire without a net. Can\'t do.
Geez. I need to vent. I loved this job until the shift in supervisors. I had a really good, laid-back boss but apparently everyone wants to work under her and new hires get shifted. I can\'t work if I don\'t know if/when I will be shifted.
I NEED STABILITY in my job and everything. This is sooo unstable and unpredictable i think i am losing my mind.
I guess I know I need to quit but really hate to.
