Hi ladies,
This week has been a total nightmare. I'm 32 weeks pregnant and moving house this weekend. We had our bond payment (4 weeks rent + 2 weeks in advance) due and my boss hasn't paid me for a month... I got in contact with him letting him know I really needed at least one of the four overdue pays in time for the bond payment and he basically told me to sort something else out
I'm having trouble coping with how angry and stressed he has made me. We had to borrow money off a number of relatives to make the payment because I'm so behind on pay and OH is already covering everything. It was even more hurtful because I had to watch my OH being so so stressed about it all.
My boss works overseas so I haven't seen him all year and actually haven't told him I'm pregnant - my manager told me in private that due to company changes I wouldn't have a job to go back to after my 4 months maternity leave anyway (government paid for) so when I give birth basically I will also be resigning. I have been working casually for the company for years but recently got changed to contract (along with everyone else) because of changes in the management. I so badly want to quit right now to put my foot down and show its not okay to be mistreating me like this but in Australia you can't get any government benefits until baby arrives and obviously at this point I can't be job hunting.
Just really needed to vent because I'm not coping and really feel on the verge of breaking down over this situation
