I know I should, I guess my worry is leave now and find a new company to only leave to go to school? Unless I somehow juggle school and work. I cannot juggle a masters degree with my current job because of location. So I have to leave this job to go back to school either way. urgh scary decisions

I think you need to sit down and talk to her in a public forum for your own protection. I have had bosses and teachers like that and it has normally worked out when I have spoke with them and a couple of times it did not help the situation but it did not cost me my job, but that is when I looked for a different position.

It is really hard to talk to her. She gets all defensive and doesn't understand. A couple of times I had to tell her in emails certain things are just out of my control and she would shut up. Shes like a child. And is not even organized so she forgets. I think I will do the best I can on finishing this silly project but I can only do so much in a given amount of time

Does she have a boss besides her dad? Talk to them with her. Most people do get defensive because they feel they are being attacked. The trick is to make them feel like they are doing you a favor by talking with you and coming up with a solution when the end result is what You want anyway

Oh do I know this situation way too well. A co worker has been working with me for a year still doesnt know what she is doing. I get in trouble for everything she does. Its never her fault its always mine. Try to talk to HR if you can.

Haha if there was an HR here. This company is far from a typical corporate company. No this girl does not have a boss. The manager we had that had some control over her was fired a while back when they fired a bunch of people. This company is horribly run and doesn't have any real management set. So she has all this power to do whatever with no one controlling her. Her dad is at the office in Canada and we are in the office at NY, so he isn't around to see her being crazy. Not to mention she is never around, she comes to work late or randomly disappears for a few days and when things get changed while she inst around she is pissed. It is like she expects things not to change while she is gone. But HELLO life moves on without you , deadlines cannot always wait for her.

Oh I feel you we have an out of state HR. I plan to be done with school in a year hopefully and I'll be leaving this shit hole (excuse my language.) I have been with my company for six years and they bring this new worker and I basically have to babysit her. My hours even got changed to be with her constantly. Can you go to school and be financially fine? I wish I was financially fine I would of left this place sooner. I'm thankful for my job just not thankful for people who still dont know their jobs.

i would look for something else bc i despise nepotism in the work place and cant stand people who think they are entitled . Look for something else then leave when you have something lined up

I would be financially okay, If i leave to go to school I would work for my dads company or slowly build a business of some sort. Maybe even work freelance.
As for her, she always acts entitled, she acts like the company would fall to pieces without her, even though she is the one making is fall. Everyone cannot stand her.
She is very spoiled, her father is rich because her grandfather was a smart investor in the real estate market. So basically old money in a sense. She also seems to forget everyone is here to earn a living. She doesn't have to work hard for anything which in my option makes her very forgetful and unorganized. Its crazy how one person can drive me SO insane to leave
And my hours technically are okay here. I work 9 1/2 hours because I choose too. I also come in early so I can leave around 5:45 every day instead of staying till 6.
The company is great when it comes to leniency, they aren't freaking out if you need to leave early for a docs appointment. Or when you take vacations.
I love everything about this company but now i hate it because she literally walks out of college and gets a manager position without experience. Then bosses everyone around. I cant handle the way its run now

I agree with Redgirl1974 - life is too short to be miserable at work. And if you are up against the bosses daughter, you may not win - take you talent and experience and go somewhere that you will be happy.

If I had the opportunity to work for my dad I would. Nothing is forever so I would jump bail. The world ends when I take a day of vacation. Makes me wonder what they are going to do when I leave haha. I would leave that place

Thanks all for the support, you are all right. I guess it needed to hear it from others. I think my next step is to apply to colleges...I dont know if I am too late for Fall 16 deadlines, but if I am I will apply the year after and focusing on my portfolio for school and studying for any tests required. I need to start focusing on what needs to be done to apply for graduate school. Then when I get close to that point maybe find a freelance job that helps me earn money while I am at school but isnt full time to the point I dont have time to study

Your right. My dad just doesnt want to hinder my career. He is a financial consultant to Hospitals. So all the work is data entry and numbers. I rather do that and be with my family and go back to school then hate life here =( Maybe I need to do some planning. I just would hate to leave a company only after a year...idk how it would look on my resume

Get a new job before you leave. Looks better on the resume.

Life is too short to be unhappy at work. Unfortunately I should also take my own advice. Hope it works out for you!!

Personally I would give her Dad a call and be professional or send him an email stating the issues and possible solutions (KEY) to the situation and cc her on it. as long as you keep it professional you should be good.

I agree with @Rockiesfan. I'm sure father/owner wants his daughter/employee to succeed, long after he is gone from this planet. Otherwise he wouldn't have invested a lot of time (and money) in her education. However, he probably discovered she isn't employable anywhere and decided to hire her to keep her from hooking up with some college dropout drug dealer living in less than desirable conditions.... but I digress. Daddy needs to see that his investment isn't paying any dividends and could actually be costing him more than he wants it to.

I totally agree with RockiesFAN...and remember...One of the "four agreements". .(a good book
I am reading)...Don't take things personally...you CAN deal with this
Until YOU decide it is time to move on....take care of yourself!!!

Yes I can deal with it until I decide its time to move on. Unless she complains about me and wants her Dad to fire me just because...but I would hope to leave here before she could try and do that.
