need a little support - bad boss day

Muddle through, Fuzz, muddle through.

My own boss in an utter prick. Sometimes, it's awful to be self-employed.

I'm glad to hear you've worked through it

It sounds like you have a solid plan. The optimist in me hopes she will realize what a twat she was, and will actually apologize.

Does your boss ever sexually-harass you, as well, Boru???

A big THANK YOU     and    to everyone who responded and anyone who took the time to read through that ramble.
I was up half the night mulling over the situation.  Your advice was very valuable.  I know what kind of boss I'm dealing with now. I'm going to be very polite and very outwardly subservient, and work my butt off, but she may regret tipping her hand over a six-month evaluation.

Very wise.

Keeping a succinct but clearly dated journal of significant events and statements, might not hurt, either.

I have nothing to say that could help. Just... sorry this is going on. 
 Hope things get better. It sounds like a stressful situation for you.

I'll guess it's only because you can't see eye to eye!

One boss I had was a tough moofoo to work for and would generally go through 1 secretary a month. Most typically quit via running from the building, crying, never to be seen again.

One secretary lasted several months, but it turned out she lied about everything on her resume, and was stealing from the company, she didn't give a rat's ass he was a tyrant.

IANMTU, the rest of us had a betting pool on how long each secretary would last. I never won . . .

I'd just rest easy knowing you scare the shit out of her. Sounds like she wants you to react so she can justify giving you a lower rating. I imagine that you are on her mind more than she on yours, and just by doing a good job. She had to be a bitch to get you worried. I don't know, knowing the source can sort of help.

In this case, she wants you to flip out. And the chance to get back at her is tempting, but it sounds like it really takes less effort to get at her: just continue to do a good job. It's win-win.

And if you smile, that's salt in the wound.

Brilliant, Exian.  Yes, this is the sort of woman who has to KNOW her minions know their place, and she's on a pedestal as the brilliant teacher.  So I will be properly subservient, and I will ask for her advice when it seems appropriate.  I'll still make the coffee tomorrow morning before she arrives.  I don't tend to "flip out".  I tend to plot my revenge very slowly and very carefully.
