I have many reasons that Im stressed - Originally posted to LiveJournal

All of you may have noticed I’ve been quite agitated over the past few weeks. This is because of work, what happened is my manager went down to Price-Waterhouse-Cooper a few weeks back for an audit, he was pretty much told that he should distance himself from the “day-to-day” tasks, which of course means I get everything he distances himself from.

However, it’s being take much to far and it’s becoming more than I can handle, on Thursday for example as I’m fielding 4 calls on 4 different problems he was sitting there playing with a mobile phone for 90 minutes, if he had spent 30 minutes helping me by taking two of those calls I probably wouldn’t be as stressed out as that means I have 2 less people constantly ringing me up asking if I had “forgot about them”.

I’m also slowly becoming the person they put things that aren’t IT related on, such as the “collect orders for the Christmas Meal” which I quite frankly take insult to as they somehow believe pushing another persons work on me plus this shit is somehow benifical to me, it is not and they are not paying me accordingly.

On Tuesday I’m doing to have a small chat and take more of my days off or I’ll go absolutly mad, it’s also a good way to make a point of how much I have to do and why adding more will eventually make me snap.

This job is now only to pay my bills, I at one point didn’t mind it at all, now I loathe going there as I know all the shit is going to hit me, even the shit I wasn’t hired to do. I’m also being made a fool on a day to day basis, I was NOT hired to maintain Sage or the barcoding system yet I find it’s thrown it my direction daily which I’m going to bring up on Tuesday (or maybe even sooner).

Also it’s getting to the point where one day I may just get up out of my chair and walk out the door and never return, which is not exactly a good way to quit a job but thats what it may come to.
