Why am I still working here? |
I work at an office. I am part time. I have a 5 month old and a boyfriend in the Army. I don't make that much money and I get no respect. I run the office and I know they would be lost with out me. I can't just up and leave. I am stuck! Should I ask to get full time or should I just go? I have been here for 2 years and no change. Have you spoken with your boss about your concerns? Perhaps they do not know that you are unhappy. After two years, you should have had the opportunity for a performance review at which point you can request a raise. Why not polish up that resume and start looking elsewhere for another job? Why *can't* you up and leave? It is always easier to find a job when you are already employed. Since you are working part time, you should have the time to interview elsewhere. Why go full time at a place where you feel you get no respect? No need to take on extra hours of torture. Get your resume together and start searching monster.com or Yahoo Jobs. Start asking around about jobs. You can find something better if you look! If they need you as bad as you say than ask for full time. You deserve that after two years. I would start looking for another job. Don't quit or until you have something else lined up. I would start putting your resume out there for another place. When you get a position, give them two weeks notice. If they want you to stay on tell them you what you are being offered at the other position and they would have to go above that to ensure that you stay. If you run the office and are as indispensable as you claim, then ask for a full time position- you're sure to get it! You should leave. Your skills are highly desired elsewhere. If you are working full time, and have a part time job, you have time to look for work before quitting. Go try to find another job. See if you can get a better deal out there in the work-marketplace. If you can, quit. If you can't, don't. -->Adam |
