I wish there was a website like post secret or something that had survival stories on women who have gone through sexual harassment in the work place. Stories of how they survived, what they did about it, and where they are now. Something that other women could go to and read about.
I have an appointment with a sexual harassment counselor on Tuesday. But I really feel like a good website or a good book would give women an opportunity to read different stories and give themselves strength to get out of the situation.
It took me years to finally walk away. I’ve read facebook emails I sent a few years ago to a coworker about all of this. I was having panic attacks and couldn’t go to work. I finally quit this time when I was completely exhausted and having panic attacks once again. I began to feel as if I was losing part of me and I was selling my soul for money. I was feeling like I lost myself.
I tried not to think about the money I made as I was making this decision. I made a great salary and was giving up a lot of future income. At that moment nothing else matter than getting the heck out of that place and away from the marriage proposals and broken promises. How much was one person suppose to take. I knew it was bad when I didn’t even care if my daughter lost her job due to me quitting. I knew we would be ok no matter what.
I kept saying to myself that I have been in some financially bad situations and I made it out alive. Every time a disaster happen in my life, it was better in the future. I took this one as a leap of faith that no matter what I will not starve. I needed off the marry go round.
I guess prosebox is going to be my best friend until I get all of this sorted out in my mind. I just can’t wait til all of this is past me and I healed from all of this. I don’t think I could ever work for another human being again. You give your heart and soul to a company based on things that were said only to find out that you were never really going to own the company one day anyways. Maybe this is why he was always changing the agreements and they never really ever got signed. He was good at taking his time on this. Although he did say lets go get it signed a week or two before I quit.............but the thing was there were two key elements missing from the document that he never gave me the answer to..................so yep........sign of avoidance again. You can’t get it signed when it’s is not complete. ugh!
