Thanks for all the replies to my problem, you’ve all been so helpful to me when I rarely contribute to posts about others problems. I must admit that due to time issues I often skim over posts that are not shopping or deal related but sometimes I read them and don’t contribute because I’m not very good at offering comforting words Please be assured that this doesn’t mean I don’t care though, just that I’m unsure of what to say

I managed to persuade my boss today to allow me to work 9 - 2:30 with a half hour lunch and he eventually agreed to this. He asked me why I sent him an email about being stressed and when I tried to explain that I struggle with the constant interruptions he was dismissive and said that in any job there will be interruptions and I cannot expect to just be left alone to get on with my work and I need to just deal with it.

I still feel that I need to get out ASAP though because I really don’t trust him now. It’s no use me trying to follow grievance procedures because there are none. Nothing in that place is done as it should be and the boss cares for no one but himself, not even his own family judging by some of the things he’s said about them. He’s a nasty piece of work I'll keep looking even harder now for another job.

For those who were wondering my original job was Administrator but it’s now been changed to Personal Assistant. I know a PA is generally a better job than an administrator but when the person being assisted is this horrible man, believe me administrator is preferable

Result then compared to what you thought

Instead of explaining that you struggle with the work (which unfortunately puts into issue your own ability to do the job and employers don't make any allowances for it), the reason you were stressed is because the employer is failing in their duty to do what they can to protect from stress in the workplace. However, unfortunately reminding employers of their responsibilities also cuts no ice (with them) and they can easily get someone else in instead. :( The only thing that matters is their bottom line:(.

I'd be asking whether you had got your trade union involved. However, I expect the reply to be 'what?:shocked:' as, if the place has no grievance procedures, it's unlikely to have any trade union and trade union power has been weakened and weakened over many years. So, sadly, people are left with struggling more and more, getting worse, and suffering mental illness and breakdown which then sees them off work for even longer. It's a no-win situation as, if you try to raise it, it, well, either/both won't be heard and you'll be cast as the one who 'can't cut it', and if you stay quiet and soldier on, you end up likely having a breakdown. There's case law about stress in workplaces (Walker vs Northumberland C.C. (1995)) but that's all just theory.

I'd be speaking to your doctor, as if you are stressed, you probably need help there, also possibly counselling (there are some very good counselling services, all free, around - do take whatever is available and offered to you).

Best of luck:).
