My job description did not include many things that I was asked/required to do. I was told once that I was like the peanuts character with a black cloud hanging over my head. I was put under so much pressure that I made mistakes. I was told that if it wasn't for her that I would not have the job, however she told another employee that she was going to terminate me 1 week prior to a write up threatening my job if I made one more mistake.
