I work for my doctor and have been working there part time for almost 7 years part time. I started going to this doctor after I worked there. Other employees go to doctors there so it's not unusual. Anyhoo- I'm moving back home soon and thought I could continue working there since I've been there for so long. I texted my boss earlier this week wanting to discuss my hours since she previously told me I could work there when I returned home. This time she responded I can't guarantee anything. We'll do what we can, I don't know how many hours I can give you. I know money is tight around there currently and more electronic we go- the less there is for me to do as a part time employee. This could be the logical explanation for my bosses response.
However, since I do go to the head doctor of the practice I'm just concerned I did something to piss her off. I struggle with bulimia and came out to her about it 2 years ago. She was supportive and has helped me out. However, at times I feel to needy asking her for referrals. I never let my ED interfere with my job performance there and do not talk to her about it unless it is late in the day and no one is around. She did refer me to an internist who is her friend. This doctor and I got into it this winter because she always told me I had an ED and couldn't help me and that pissed me off. I would go back to my doctor and tell her this all mad.
Long story short, does it sound like I won't have a part time job here soon? Do you think the main doctor of the practice thinks I'm to needy and doesn't feel comfortable with this double role as doctor and boss (never indicated it but you never know) and that's why my job is a maybe thing right now? Would it be inappropriate to contact this doctor and ask her about this? I don't want to come off crazy but I want to know since she is the first person I told about my ed and has helped me- I need this support still. I did text this doctor earlier this week telling her I was coming home soon due to graduation, thanked her for my job and said I would love to keep working there post graduation. Her response was "Congrats to you!". So maybe I'm just overthinking all of this and I'm on good terms with everyone.
Thank you to whoever reads this rambling. any advice is greatly appreciated!!!
