I don't know why I'm posting this except I
have nothing better to do right now. I'm
so bored and lonely today. Normally I
would be working full time but I've been
off work and school since the middle of
March because of my surgery. I shouldn't
be complaining because I know it would be
hard to work right now when I have a hard
time just walking or standing for a long
time. I'm just tired of spending so much
time at home alone. There is a healthy
baby program on at 1:30 today and I think
I will try it out just to see what they're
like. They're put on free mostly for low
income mothers and I think there are a lot
of really young moms there so I don't know
how much I'll fit in but I'll give it a
shot I suppose. I might learn a thing or
two from them you never know. I like to
think I know a lot about pregnancy but
it's all from researching in books and my
own experience. When it comes to babies,
I don't have a lot of experience so that
might be interesting to be around some
newborns. I'm just trying really hard not
to get depressed and to enjoy the time I
have left with my baby safe inside me. My
partner works a lot and is tired when he
gets home and I don't have any friends my
age who aren't busy with career and
family. Blah, I'm so feeling sorry for
myself today!! .L.O.L.
Anyway, I feel better now that I've vented
a little. I'm gonna go find something to
do.

I *was* an a/p manager. Until my division
moved to texas. (and my dh refused to go
too
) So they gave me a job offer to stay here
in the it dept. I was thrilled. (more
money) Then at the last min they said I
wouldn't be going to IT that I was needed
in a different division as a clerk. And
the same pay I was previously making. I
wasn't happy, but they said that there
would be "movement" and I would be in a
different position in a few months. It is
now 5 months later and I am tired of
waiting. I hate the people I work with.
(more importantly they hate me) and I
think there are two people in line in
front of me for advancement now I'm not
happy. I'm having a meeting tomorrow with
my supervisor (a former co-worker *not*
boss) to let him know how unhappy I am and
tell him to fix it now or I'm out.

In my previous job, I loved and hated
being in management. I was promoted to
management because they fired my boss and
I was the best candidate that knew how to
do the job. I hated how the upper
management would pass over people who were
very deserving of moving up the latter
only to hire someone else from the outside
that had no clue how to do their job. Then
the people who had been there for a long
time had to "train" the manager how to do
their job. Now to me, that would make the
person who was training the manager
perfectly capable of doing the managers
job if they are training them to do it in
the first place right???
I would definitely talk to whom ever you
need to in order to voice your concerns.
It might help to make a list of all the
"duties" that you are responsible for and
anything "new" that you have picked up
since they moved you. That way you will
have some ammo to show them how valueable
you are to them. I always liked when
people came to me with that. My only
other suggestion is to tell your
supervisor that you are unhappy with your
work assignment, or your coworkers, but
don't go overboard. They might think that
you are just there to complain instead of
trying to do a good job.
I hope you find a better job soon so that
you don't have to worry about your working
situation. It is always nice to be able
to go to work and actually feel like you
are needed. You deserve that.
Good luck

Kearbear I love the new avatar!!
Star-I'm an asset. I know that, they know
that. I had to prove myself to become
management (my age is a huge factor) and
they know that I did a good job and would
be overly qualified for another management
position. There just aren't any available.
And I'm getting tired of waiting. I don't
just want to be on hold till its
convenient to them. I could easily get
another job making more money.
The responsibility is whats killing me. I
have none! At all. That's how I can spend
so much time on here. I'm used to being in
control of everything and having a say.
Now I just show up and do busy work. I
hate it

I feel that way a lot with my job..I
work at a hospital at the information
desk, I hate answering the phones and
saying the same things over and over.
People are usually not in the best mood
when they are in a hospital either and I
get yelled at a lot, probably a lot more
then some of my co-workers or so it seems,
and they expect me to know everything,
grrr. So I am on here a lot at work and it
gives me something to do when there are
slow times(rarely though).
Kaerbear, glad you got out of the house
for a while. Hope your night is better and
not as boring
Christy, Good luck with you job
situation, hope you find something that
makes you happier. I know I want to, lol
