I work for a control freak and today has been the pits.
I've had many days like this before but until about six weeks ago I didn't know about this site and had no idea how that we could retire "early".
Now that I know our FIRE date my attitude toward work has gotten worse. It was already marginal due to my megacorp being bought out by a worse mega. I even took positive action and changed jobs but discovered that I've traded a nut job boss for a control freak boss.
Retirement date is September 1, 2016 and unless a windfall comes that is the date (I'll be 55 + 1 day, DH will be 51).
Thanks for listening to the whine...not anything I can do about it but suck it up and say thank you ma'am, may I have some more since we have to be in a job for 18 months before we can look again.
BUT, thank you for being here....there is a very bright light at the end of the tunnel and it is not a train!
