I have been a SAHM for 10 years and finally got a job last month working for an adult day care center as their dietitian. I am very, very grateful to my boss who took a chance on me and hired me. He is a psychologist and the nicest person ever.
Well, his partner has a severe borderline personality disorder and puts everyone in misery, so much so that my boss is selling out his share this next week.
Most of the staff is walking out with him. I don't know what to do. Stay with the evil witch and have my life become misery, but gain experience so I can get a better job. Or leave with the rest of the crew to support my boss, but possibly not have another opportunity come around anytime soon.
Any thoughts?

Unless your boss has a job for you, I'd say you put your head down, do your job, and get the experience. I'm so sorry about that it purely sucks!
Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.

Stay for now, but start looking for another job.
Its easier to be picky when you're already working.

The conventional wisdom is that it's easier to get another job if you're already employed, so start looking now.
I can definitely empathize and sympathize with you; I worked for a borderline once and it was hell on earth. She destroyed the nonprofit agency that we ran.
You are important and you matter. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. Your story matters. Your life matters. Always.
