So , Emily , how was your day ?   I don't think you really want to hear about it .   It can't have been that bad . Go on and tell me about it .   To be honest , it was horrible ! My manager is such a pain in the neck !   Why ? What happened ?   Well , he made quite a few mistakes on the monthly report and when his supervisor found them , my manager blamed them on me !   That's not very fair . What did you do ?   There wasn't really anything that I could do . There's always been a lot of bad blood between my manager and myself . If I had said anything , he would have fired for me for sure .   Does he treat everyone in your department like this ?   He treats everyone pretty poorly , but the way he treats me really takes the cake !   Do you have any idea why he treats you worse than the others ?   I really have no idea . All I know is that the thought of him really curls my hair !   Is there anyone else you can talk to about it at you company ?   Not really . I'm hoping to live with it for a while until I get a promotion .   That's very sensible . It sounds like you have a good head on you shoulders .   I try to be sensible about it , but it's not very easy . Sometimes you just have to grin and bear it .
