I work at a place with a lot of psychologists and the like. I am the executive director.

My boss is, at first blush, a sweet 70+ year old grandmotherly type. But she just does not understand why I can't be at f**king beck and call 24/7. She's called me at 6 in the morning, 11:00 p.m., and on one of the very few days I actually called off sick she called me so many times that I ended up going to work.

Now I understand that she's a therapist and she's got patients calling her at all times of the day and night. But...guess what - I'm not a f***ing therapist!

The last straw was when she called me at 11:00 p.m. on a Friday night to ask me who was taking care of breakfast at the seminar the next morning (answer - she was). Although I have asked her only to call me at home if it's an emergency (and clearly she has no idea of what that is) I told her never to call me at home again. Ever.

Well now she's pissed at me. For a week she didn't talk to me (okay not such a bad thing) but I've got my review coming up next week, and despite the fact that I've brought in more than 35K in the first 4 months of my employment (that, according to them, should warrant a bonus), Grandma Boss now tells me that "perhaps I'll get a bonus at year-end". It's her little way of trying to stick it to me.

You know, I used to go to a bar that had a sign that said "free beer tomorrow" - and of course tomorrow never came. So does she actually think when year-end comes I'll expect that bonus? What is she, crazy (okay, that's entirely possible)?

When did it become alright for bosses to call employees at work at all times of the day or night? And guess what - she hasn't stopped calling - she's only stopped leaving messages. She doesn't know this, but I got caller ID. She's a crazy bitch!
