If I may just bitch for one moment...

So I'm the only asshole in my office who isn't on salary. I've also been there YEARS longer than the others. My boss texted ME this morning to put an analysis together for him. ME, on a Sunday. Off the clock. Why the hell wouldn't he text one of his salary employees for this?!

WTF?!

Rant over. Aggravating as f*ck!
 Quoting: Simple27


gaah is right Sim. Your boss sucks. Told you that on many occasions. If you don't watch yourself you are the one sitting at home with a big burn out at your age, while they don't lose one minute of sleep over it. He texts YOU on Sunday, because he knows you won't say no. You are often way too polite and loyal. And they know it and abuse that knowledge. I know it might be difficult for you to say no, but if you never take a stand against it, they will keep abusing you, till you are drained and then find a way to get rid of you, blaming you for it.

You have many skills and qualities, that do not only apply to the field you are in now. With an economy that is picking up, there must be enough companies that will be glad to have you with your experience and work attitude and age, much closer to home.

And I mean that from the bottom of my heart and as your friend. You give yourself way too little credit for what you can achieve. You have shown what you are capable of, more than anyone else, in work and in life. Use that to YOUR benefit instead of always saying yes. They don't own you. YOU do!

Thanks Mezzo. hugs I have to call a meeting with him anyway about something else, but would like to bring up salary and this will just give me a little more ammo to back up my request. The fact that whenever he texts me on a weekend to do something for him, I do it. Without complaining (to him lol).

It sucks because I like my job and what I do, I just don't like the complete overload of work at a pay rate that isn't worth it.

Decisions, decisions.
 Quoting: Simple27


This Littlepixie so feels for you simple, this is an awful situation.

Perhaps you could note your overtime hours, as your not on salary, I suggest you could invoice him as an Independent Consultant at $150 per hour, with a note at the bottom that says: put me on salary or payment is due within 7 days!

See how he likes them apples.

I realize this probably isn't a very realistic response but I hope it gave you a smile/giggle either way.

Remember: people will only treat you how you allow them to treat you.

 Quoting: Simple27


I always do the stuffing and the cranberries. I'm also getting broccolini to roast. The dessert is what I'm changing up this year. I usually make a big pumpkin flan, but there will only be a few of us this year, so I decided to make something different. I've been looking at recipes and have narrowed it down but haven't decided on one yet.

LOL. That roasted broccolini sounds good. I'm thinking turkey croquets this year and that broccolini would go nicely. Tired of regular turkey. I'd still make stuffing and gravy though.
