Even my boyfriend thinks im exaggerating because my job title doesn't sound very hard. I'm a medical receptionist for a doctor. Its mainly a summer job before I go back to school, but I'm so stressed that I came home crying and he said I need to be stronger and I cry too much.
Im the only one up front. I handle his ~3000 patients by myself. The only nurse in the office should supposedly help me but she's 70 and can only do so freaking much and refuses to answer too many calls. Patients call and yell at me wanting to talk to the doctor about results, but he's so incompetent and lazy that he takes my messages, puts in the file, and forgets about it. All I can do is apologize to the patients and tell them I will let the doctor know. When I tell him he gets mad at me for not promptly telling him they are on the phone. He gets mad when I don't prescribe medicine ( I'm only fucking 20 years old and don't have a doctorate degree). The charts are misplaced and down the hall so I have to run back and forth getting them. I have to answers phones that ring off the hook every 5 secons, file paperwork, check in patients, check benefits, get charts ready, deal with demanding people etc. He talks to me nasty, but he talks to his wife even worse.
I'm afraid to ask for more help because he would just tell me to kick rocks if I don't like it. He is so stingy with his money that he won't hire anyone else. I feel depressed.
