How many times have I said this..

I want another job. I need another job.

Quite frankly, I get paid pretty well. or maybe not. I mean, I've been here for 8 years. How do I know what the norm is anymore. I have to look into that. Anyway, the turn of events lately have just got me thinking.

First off, I don't go to the "staff" meetings on Mondays. Am I not staff? They are in there for an hour max, wouldn't it be ok if they just forwarded the phone until then. Apparently NOT!!

Second, there was a luncheon that we sponsored yesterday. Everyone had gotten an invite to go except of course.. you guessed it. ME. I probably wouldn't go. But an invite would be nice.

Third, two coworkers of mine have been here less then a year and they both have gone to conferences outside of the office. 3 nights in Ruidoso, NM would be wonderful to me right now. I mean it's a very small place. But a touristy place. They aren't doing anything that I couldn't do. I mean, they are going to sessions (I take great notes), they are doing marketing (got that one down too) and they are passing out brochures (in the bag!). THREE NIGHTS!!

Fourth, and the one that got me HEATED!!, I had ordered 3 cases of paper. Usually my one boss (male) will put it away from me. Those BITCHES are heavy. Well the other male boss comes up to me this morning and says.. at some point today would you put away that paper? I looked stunned and said, yeah I'll put it away. "Nice boss" usually does it. But I don't have a problem doing that. He could tell I was upset. I mean who wouldn't. Ok, yes I know it's my job to order supplies and what not. BUT, he couldn't do it. Come on now, it's THREE boxes.

It's not even about the paper as much as it is just being unappreciated. I don't get to do anything, go anywhere, get anything that everybody else gets. I've been here 8 long effing years and I'm so tired of being here already. The truth is, I won't get the 4 vacation if I go to another job. I may not get bonuses. On the other hand, I may get paid more. Ugh.. the pain in my head. LOL

Well if you've all read this.. that's great. Not sure I have any more readers.. but if so..LOVE YOU!!

hey, of course you have readers!!
well I don't think it is fair the way you are treated and not appreciated there. If you were not there, things wouldn't be so great for them...first off they wouldn't get paid...2nd they wouldn't have all of their needed items, and most important, they wouldn't have a bright smiling face to cheer up the place!! I say it doesn't hurt to at least look around at other places...you never know, you might find something with a better pay and better treatment and respect.
