[QUOTE="Dog Moon, post: 6009324, member: 23023"] Ouch, hope everything goes well for you. I completely understand about not liking a job. I like what I do and my coworkers, but I was hired for certain things and later a responsibility was added to my job that I absolutely detest. However, I still have to do it. But it was always a sort of secondary thing to me because it wasn't something I was hired to do. Top it off, no benefits and unfair hours... I sorta started slacking off and I only now realize how long it's been since I've actually liked my job situation. Unfortunately, the boss saw my situation and she does what she always does when she sees someone in a situation not beneficial to her: gets someone else. So she brings in someone else to do this responsibility that I hate. And my hours get cut from working 40 hours per week to 25 hours per week. Enough for me to BARELY get by, but not enough for anything extra or savings or anything. Worst part is... she's like "I would have liked to have given you sick leave, vacation time and a raise, but your performance is not good enough to deserve that." That pissed me off. No benefits, not enough money [I even took a paycut to take this job that I originally liked], unfair hours, not my responsibility... had she done that in the first place, that would have made me happy enough to do a better job. I literally have not taken any vacation days in like 4 years. Why... I spend money for vacation and I don't get paid for that time. Double whammy... Working on my resume now... On the plus side in Dog Moon's life... I've found the woman I love and want to get married to. :) [/QUOTE]
