    My husband and I moved across the country for a job relocation for him. I am now working remote (at home) and can’t say that I am happy or fulfilled. My job is now under new management and it’s really making my life hell. They’ve hired two reps (one of which is incredibly rude) to micromanage everything that we do. These two people goes through our systems and work and nit-picks every single thing we all have done that is not up to par. On top of that, they message me simulate throughout the day letting me know all the mistakes I have made. I have expressed my frustrations to them and have let them know that this is a crazy busy time for me and I am not getting much help. Having them message me all day telling me what I did wrong is not only disruptive but it’s belittling and makes me feel like I am not competent. These “errors” that they find is sometimes silly things like “you highlighted this yellow instead of blue”. I am in a new state where I don’t know anyone, I’m micromanaged all day and am in complete isolation (since I work from home) all for a job that doesn’t fulfill me in the least. I want to just quit and walk away but I know I can’t do that. Finding a new job will be hard especially because I do not have a lot of vacation time to use anymore. Not sure what to do….

    Dear Secretlifeofbees:

    To understand your situation better, I ask: what is your husband’s input on the matter?

    Dear Secretlifeofbees,

    You mentioned that your job is under a new management. Did you feel better under the previous management? Was the job fulfilling you earlier and now not anymore.

    I understand from what you have written that it is difficult currently for you to look for a new job. It is good that you have communicated to them. Is there anyone in the management that you can reach out to?

    When I feel overwhelmed and when I find that support is lacking, I tell myself that at one point in time, there is only one thing that I can do; and what I can do, I will put in my best concentrated effort.

    Hope this is of some help.

    Take care of other aspects of your life in this difficult time.
