In need of a different job. Boss is a bit unfair.
At my work, how we're paid is supposed to go by how long we've been there (and of course, how well we're doing at our jobs). Now, granted I haven't been there even a year yet - it'll be 10 months in mid-April - I'd say I've been doing pretty well with keeping up with all the responsibilities and quirks in that place.
But yet I find out from a friend of mine there that the newest person, who arrived in September, is making 50 cents more per hour than I am. And she has no college degree. I'm not saying I should be the highest paid person in there just because I have a degree, but I don't think that this upholds the seniority policy that had apparently been adhered to until recently.
I do my work. Sometimes I do more if I have to. It all depends on whether there's a lot or a little.... which changes from one day to the next these days.
:sigh:
Really wishing the economy would pick up. Yeah, I know, me and billions of other people. Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful to have a job, especially now, but I hate feeling like I've been stuck on the back burner after I worked so hard to earn something as meaningful as a 4-year college degree. Here's to hoping that better days are on the way.
