I started a part-time assistant job at a small home office/business a few months ago because I am continuing my education and would still like to make an extra buck while attending classes. Everything was fine at first, until my male boss decided to bring his mistress into the house and my female boss (his wife) completely flipped out and kicked him out. They have been married for 2 years, both their previous spouses deceased. After threatening with a divorce and retaining one of the most priciest divorce lawyers in town, my female boss decided to forgive him and let him come back to run the company.
Anyways, to make a long story short, the guy now thinks I betrayed him by staying with the wife (she is the one with the money, and she is the one writing my check, so yes, of course I am going to stick around with her instead of a cheater), and now he is doing anything to make my life hell at work and to sabotage me. I have been accused of stealing his driver's license, his credit cards, coming late without calling in (even though I did call in and let everybody know) and he made me pick up his dry cleaning and get his watch fixed, and then went into a hissy fit because he didn't give me permission to leave when I went to run his errands. He also talks really loud about me and complains about me, even though I have done nothing wrong. Plus, he now has the assumption that I want to take over his business (which, really, I don't). The wife of course doesn't believe him, but she doesn't stick up for me either.
I am sick of it, and I just want to tell them: F you, i'm out of here! But this is not the mature way to deal with it. And I like making some money because I still want to be able to shop at my LBS! I think the only solution here is to look for another part-time job, but so far, other jobs i've interviewed for do not offer the flexibility this crap job offers.
What to do? And sorry for making this post so long!
