I've been fired. No warning. It's a live-in job. For the record I've worked hard under a lot of abuse and situations that have been difficult to deal with, but also for the record, the woman of the house has been unstable and volatile from the start, impossible to approach, and these have been horrendous working conditions but I've stayed in order to simply save money then get out..
I have been saving my money to be able to make a getaway plan already, but she beat me to it and I'm not going to be able to have many options as planned.
I was escaping domestic abuse and she even threw that in my face as a reason to fire me -- accusing me of "concealing the information" at the interview. I didn't bring it up because I was long gone from his home, had moved on, he was not and IS not stalking me, and it's all over!!!
Also, I was also advised not to mention recent abuse history to anyone now because some people tend to adopt the same behavior as they learn you've already been subjected to. Oddly enough she was already a person of emotionally abusive tendencies -- they've gone through more nannys, personal assistants and even home remodelers and builders than anyone I know -- people in their history have either been fired or walked out in disgust. A personal assistant just did so a couple of weeks ago.
I knew this gig was a volatile one and I started saving but this was not enough time.
What I don't understand is why I've now found myself in a chain of various types of abuse that I wasn't living with before I came to this country. The sh*t hit the fan the moment I came here to be with the man I had to later leave, but the weird thing is, it has now serially continued. This is NOT the life I was living back in the US. I don't understand what has happened to my life. The bad stuff is just going on and on.
