Re: 45, ADD and totally in the wrong job, I feel suck and screwed

If someone have read this before either A: I quit my job or B: I got fire, please give me some pointers if possible.

I believe that I am in the right industry. I am a prepress specialist. My job requires me to be hyperfocus and fix almost every single document that we receive from our client. I work in a very busy and hectic environment.

I can handle my job very well if I am actually doing my job most of the time. However, our supervisor left a few years ago. My boss insist that we DONT NEED A SUPERVISOR!! Guess who takes over the slack? Me and my other co-worker!! I made a lot of mistakes in the beginning. Which is how I got myself to check if I am ADHD.

I am on 27MG of Concerto. And I closely monitor if I make less mistakes. I find myself extremely productive and I have minimized the frequency of making mistakes. EG. From making a mistake once every week to once every 3 months. Is this good enough or what? However, this is NOT good enough for my boss.

I mentioned to him numerous times, other employees have mentioned to him numerous times. That we DO NEED A SUPERVISOR so that we can do our JOB!! He don’t listen. I said to him numerous times that I already got a full load just doing my job. I can handle phone calls and everyting that he needs me to do. But I will make mistakes. He disagree. Instead of listening to me, he kept on telling me that I make more mistakes than normal people.

He probably don’t mean it. But to me, it sounds as if he never stopped telling me that I am a defect. That the only reason that I am still working in this company is because of him. The truth is, I am one of the BEST that you can ever find in this industry. And he have splited my attention to too many things than I can handle.

I have mentioned to him about this annoying disability. But I feel that he literally don’t give a shit about it.

Does anyone know if there is any law that can protect me from these kind of people?

REPORT ABUSE
