So I've fallen into my old habit of forgetting to blog, but today I have a rant to give. I'll give you some background about my career so you'll understand how big this is for me.
I've worked at this company for 4 years. They've been putting me through college. (Not paying for my college, but helping me make money while I'm in school) I won't name the business because it really is an awesome place. I'm just done. I recently asked them about getting a raise. I didn't say that i wanted one I just asked for the possibility of getting one. I wanted a no or yes answer. I got an order to give reasons why my job was so important that i should get a raise. That wasn't my question at all, but i did it anyway. I had a paper filled front to back of things only I did. Nothing happened. So I've been on edge for a bit, but was willing to live with it. I'm a customer service representative and I take my job seriously. I was there to help customers and that's what i did. Recently they had me start doing the mail run. except now that I'm in school that means I wasn't able to do customer service, but they still had me on that. I was there for maybe 1 1/2 hours per day the rest of the time was spent driving around. how could i help customers when i wasn't there. They still had me as the main customer service rep, and i begun to hate my job. given this impossible task I was sinking fast. I needed out, but here's the thing that pushed me over the edge because I was going to hang in there hoping it would get better. I was gathering my stuff getting ready to go on the bank run (second half to mail run) when I was gathering my stuff into a pile. A manager threw a stack of papers at me. I didn't know whose they were and what to do with them. It made me mad. How in the world could she do that. I was barely hanging off a cliff, and she came and stomped on my fingers making me loose grip. So i left. But i can't just leave without letting them know. So I will go back BUT I'm going to put in two weeks notice and then i will never go back.
Wow so my background story became my rant. I can't see how a NORMAL person can put up with that, but it wasn't a split decision. I've been planning to leave for a long time now. In fact probably as long as I've had the mail/bank run. I hate driving and this just forces me to do more. This just isn't for me. I'm lining up another job because with the economy going down there's not much options for the unemployed, and i REFUSE to sign up for UN-employment. I actually cried for two days after deciding to quit. It was a big decision for me to make. I just can't take the lack of HUMAN respect. I mean who throws papers at people for no reason. I loved my job when i first started working there, it was magical. Now I just want out.
