Hi Bree !! Hope you are doing well
I was wondering if you had any advice on how to choose the best spell for a situation ? For context, I have one month left in a frankly infuriating job, my two managers are on holidays for a couple weeks and in between the manager on top of them is throwing tasks at me like its a basketball tournament. Should i bind him from giving me additional missions ? Should i do a spell to make my "no"s more heard ? Put him or my clients in the freezer ?
The binding seem too strong and the freezer might not get me exactly the result i want tho... your thoughts ?
Oooo, a challenge! This is one where practical action is definitely going to tie in with your magical efforts, so get ready to put your pointiest hat on.
In this case, I'd recommend a spell for amplification and reinforcement of your boundaries, plus putting the asshole manager on ice as you suggested. The freezing might be less about shutting him down and more about reducing his ability to bother you, and the boundary should be set at your office door and around any lines of communication being used to bug you.
On the practical front, get your receipts together, show what you're already working on, and put your foot down. You have a limited amount of time and a set number of tasks. If Asshole Manager is going to throw tasks at you instead of doing them himself or delegating properly, ask for prioritization on every single one. How and why is it more important than what you're already doing? Get absolutely everything in writing and do not, under any circumstances, accept a private meeting to discuss matters. That way, if anyone bitches about things not getting done on time later, you have a paper trail.
And as a last resort measure, you can always tender your resignation early and let them flounder. They clearly need you more than you need them. Know your worth. 😈
Best of luck with your new job! Hopefully it will treat you better.
