discontent

November 30th, 2005 at 09:06 pm

Yesterday, the other admin looked "off" and I asked her what the matter was...I wish I hadn't! ...she showed me what she was working on: requests to HR to increase salaries for 4 of the analysts in the group...2 of them will go from 1,450 to 1,775....the other 2 will go from 1,775 to 2,400...that's USD/MONTH....oh, and the 2 latter ones also get their monthly bonuses changed from 3% of their salary to 5% of their salaries if the dept reaches its goals...it is soooo unfair!...I make $800 and haven't had a raise in 2 years! ...not even when I went and ASKED for one!!...the other admin makes $600 and hasn't had a raise in 3 years!...the reason: they don't know what they could possibly say to HR to justify increasing OUR salaries!! (how about: when we started, there were only 13 people in the unit, and now there are 32?? or...there were 2 houses and now there are 5??...) makes me sooo mad, I could cry!...I thought the feeling would have worn off by today, but it hasn't... Frown

I NEED A HUG!!

    ...sending mental hugs. Its really hard to be motivated when your employer sends clear messages that they dont value or support the work you do. How is the job market in your area? Got no other words of wisdom, but to hang in there and hope something bigger and better comes along.

    I feel for you. Something similar happened to me. Two years ago, my bosses' boss, who is dumber than dirt itself asked me to help him update and format a spreadsheet. It was our monthly salary and what we were going to receive in bonuses. Let's just say that I was so glad that I didn't have a gun!
