Aw Jem. I can't say anything I pretty much walked out and didn't come back from work. If OH didn't have such a good wage though I couldn't have so I know that's not really a solution.

You should have cover when you're sick. Is it just you for reception? I know nothing about reception work though, but my doctors have always had one than one person? Sounds like they're taking the piss tbh! Xx

No I'm the practice secretary and the only one. Plus the only one that knows how to do the job. Luckily when I joined here I already had experience, as I was literally just thrown straight into the job without any training. Because, surprise surprise, the previous secretary walked out!

 

[Shanivy]

[KHTW]

About to walk to out of work and never fucking come back. So angry and upset. I'm sat here blotchy, snivelling and sobbing. Got a shitty message from a doctor with the wording:

"referrals dictated 19th dec. still waiting to be typed. can you clear the decks re dictation - giving dictation priority each day over queries and tasks moving forwards."

I have been to work 3 days from 22nd December to now - therefore obviously the work hasn't been done because I haven't been here and nobody covers me!!!! Obviously I am doing the work in date order as priority I am not an idiot and know how to do my job. I am so so angry, my colleague is fuming and I'm just sat here crying just wanting to go home. I've had enough, I really have

I am sorry you are having a tough time Hopefully rest on the week is be better x

 

[Enya5589]

No decent pics of baby as he wouldn’t stay still for long enough haha! But heres a couple potty shots hehe xx

 

[Shanivy]

Lol well that's definitely a little penis! Haha so happy for you xx

 

[PeanutButter]

Congrats Enya!

Jem, I would have walked out. I walked out of maccies loads I didn't give a shit about money. They always wanted me back though :/
Maybe give your notice in they'll sort there shut out and ask you to stay. it's risky though x

 

[JemRose]

Enya definite penis there, congrats again so exciting.

Yeah PB I literally had to stop myself from walking out, but I just can't afford to and OH would be fuming. Once I'm confident I won't break down in tears, I will be talking to my manager though! x

 

[Enya5589]

Yes no denying that little sausage is there haha! Thank u laides xx

 

[Shanivy]

Definitely talk to the manager about the demands their putting on you. The most I've ever had coming off sick was catching up with the books for everyone's meds, behaviour, issues, appointments etc. I don't know how you do it honestly. If the last secretary walked out then obviously there's an issue with how they run the desk. Not arranging cover for the only person who can do the job is so ridiculous! I hope you sort it, I really do xx

 

[JemRose]

Feel like going back to my doctors and being signed off for stress tbh. I feel like a robot right now, I'm trying not to cry, can't talk to anyone. Just feel broken tbh, it's just too much x

 

[Shepherdess]

congratulations Enya!

Shanivy I swear you and I are so similar! DD is just my world and so used to the one on one time. even when I say "today we're going to the cafe and park" she'll go "just us two though mummy no friends" she loves our little bubble.

I'm a very hands on mummy we're always painting/crafting/baking/playing and for a long time I didn't want another baby as I wanted DD to have all my attention and time and now I worry I've done the wrong thing. I've deliberately left it long enough so DD can do things sitting independently at her table while I hold a baby and I'll be including her in as much as possible. she's a very loving little girl and already "reads" tobaby daily so fingers crossed everyone is happy
I had two brothers with 4 years between us all and in honesty I did feel left out. I think I would have benefited from some mummy daughter time and I resented always sharing. I know that sounds awful but that's just how I felt as a child. I never want DD to feel that way which is another reason I'm definitely stopping at two children; I don't want anyone feeling left out

God parenting decisions are so tough

 

[PeanutButter]

Ah man. I want my gender scan now!!! Ahaa too excited I can't wait!

 

[KHTW]

Ah man. I want my gender scan now!!! Ahaa too excited I can't wait!

Me too!! Really excited to know! x

God yes! It's weird you think exactly how I do with dd!

Same! We paint, craft, go out just the two of us. I just love being with her. Especially when I was working. It's her favourite thing when I pick her up from nursery and tell her we're going somewhere for food, ice cream, to get her clothes, park etc! She still runs to me when I get her everyday from nursery. She's so independent but still such a mummies girl it's unreal.

I can't relate really with feeling left out. My mum wanted kids, made it very clear I was an accident, and had so many mental health issues that she was violent and cold. I didn't even realise how strange that was until I had my own daughter. She's treated for her illness now and is definitely one of those people who try to make up for it with grandchildren. My relationship with my brother was so much more important to me than with her. With dd though I planned her, wanted her, I say I love you everyday, cuddles, attention, she has literally the opposite of my childhood. I hate her to feel left out.

And we'll probably look back at feeling this way once we have our babies and think duh what was all the worrying for! But I'm still nervous! Xx

 

[JemRose]

Just had a panic attack at work, yay. My manager brought me into her office and let me sit there and helped me breathe through it. Literally haven't stopped crying since 1pm.

She said everyone understands I'd been off sick and that I'm doing everything I can (do they?! doesn't seem like it). They are interviewing someone tomorrow who can start work straight away so she's hoping she will fit the bill and start her beginning of next week. She's going to talk to the doctor in question tomorrow too.

So my breakdown hasn't really helped anything, other than make me feel like a massive twat. But oh well haha. Still sat here sobbing and trying to carry on working when all I want to do is go home. What a mess!!

I'm glad you got it all out though Jem. Sometimes we need to just lay it all on the table. Hopefully the newbie will start soon and ease some of your worries xx

 

[sarah1986]

Congrats Sarah!! Boyish skull but who knows! Do you have a preference? 9th March is not too far away x

Not really we will be happy with either, my partner has said he would like a girl thou as he has a son, but he will be happy with either xx

 

[Shanivy]

Hugs Jem! I used to have panic attacks in my teens, not a nice thing to happen at work especially pregnant. It's good you got through it. And that hopefully they are listening to you now . It's positive that at least someone is being interviewed. Hopefully by next week things will be looking up for you xx
