So there is this power struggle where I work between everyone and the one person that holds it all together. They say that the one who holds it together is a “obsessive-compulsive, passive agressive, control freak” who is super secretive in order to maintain control over everyone else. I used to think it was far-fetched. Then I thought I could see where they were coming from, but it didn’t really affect me. Now, it seems like it is affecting me and to be honest, I am at an impass. On one hand, things can just stay the way they are. I could keep working on my own and not freak out when this control freak doesn’t follow through.

Or I could become a dirty rat. The others have been sending emails to our boss telling her every time this other person screws up. Which is frequent. And everyone assumes it is because this person is a control freak. So should I follow suit and run the risk of being on the “wrong side” of the person I rely on the most for my job to go smoothly? Or do I just keep my mouth shut and hope things don’t get worse for me?

The best part is, I am temporary. So I can only imagine what it would be like if I was a permanent employee. Which I was going to apply for, but I don’t know if I could manage staying here for a long period of time.
