[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just let it go OP.  Move on.  I'm sure that you leaving will be difficult and distressing for them - count that as your vengeance and just get on with things.

FWIW, I think you may need to develop a thicker skin in general - there will be all kinds of times when tone/attitude/communication styles vary from boss to boss and being able to successfully navigate those things can mean not taking things so personally.

But for this - chalk it up as a short episode and get on with your life.[/quote]

I don't to be rude but you don't know me. I have very thick skin and I have dealt with my fair share of cristicism. While I don't normally see that with my job because I'm good at it, I have dealt with various issues. What I won't deal with I'd being called a liar. Its personal when someone calls me a liar. You may deal with that but I won't. [/quote]

Of course I don't know you.  I am only going on what you have written here.  But what you wrote in your initial post was:  MB and DB told me they were worried I was not interested in continuing to work for them because I missed days. They basically accused me of lying that I was sick just so I didn't have to go into work. They went on and on about how they are worried I missed those days because I don't like them. I am beyond upset because they basically called me a liar.

And you've repeatedly said that the reason you're leaving is because they accused you of lying.

But I could see a version of this where they were anxious, handled it poorly, etc... and you felt accused while they felt genuinely worried you were quitting.  I'm just saying that if you base your plans on communications that perhaps you took more personally than was intended, then a relationship that could have been salvaged is instead destroyed.

It's great that you can move on so easily.  But I also think it's a shame if this was just the result of poor/misunderstood communication.  I didn't mean anything I said as an attack.  But you're perceiving what I said as harshly as the interaction w/ your employers.  Maybe there is a piece of this you could learn from.  That's all.   All the best to you (and to them) in finding better/happier working relationships.[/quote]
