I told a co-worked I would help him with something today and I deeply, deeply regret being this friendly/people pleasing. Never again!

I’ve been a member of the sub for a long time and I’ve very much enjoyed reading the posts. Many years ago I was an administrative assistant. I am now a community manager. I’m here seeking some advice today. I cannot post in my profession specific sub for fear of my boss reading my post. I will try to keep the facts limited to the essentials. Basically it comes down to this: I had a construction project ready to go, and my boss wouldn’t release payment to the contractors because I hadn’t created budgets in various software applications. The invoices could be paid and reclassified later, I checked with accounting. He has delayed me over 17 days in this construction project which is going to give me a really huge headache with my residents. I really feel that it comes down to his just not caring that much about me and the community. The last 17 days have been excruciating for me. The kind of excruciating where you’re like. “Is it reasonable to just quit this job and live in my car?” The question for you all is how do I make him feel guilty for this? In like a nice, professional manner? I’m scheduled to talk to him on zoom tomorrow. He is the kind of turd that will talk to you for the entire meeting with his camera off.

Just a rant. I’ve been at my property almost a year. Got my third or fourth knock and run tonight. This one was aggressive. I know it’s probably just kids but I’m pissed that it rattled *my kid* and I spent most of the evening fantasizing how to beat a kid’s ask if I catch them. I’m trying to hit that year mark not to look flakey and then I want out of here.
