trapped in what could turn into a depressing vortexThis is my first entry although I have stumbled onto this site numerous times while feeling utterly bored and depressed at work. Usually when I am just beginning to feel better after reading all of your entries, someone walks by my desk and nosily stares at my screen. First thing I hate about my job. I am a receptionist at a small marketing company. I have an honors degree and this was the first job I could find. Pathetic. A retarded monkey could do my job...no offense to retards or monkeys, as my job is a total joke. When I am not answering phones I am watching the bottom feeders flirt with each other, close doors, and talk forever in their offices while I sit outside like a putz waiting for the damn phone to ring. When I was hired I was told that I would be an admin/marketing assistant. Ha. The closest thing I get to marketing is picking stuff up from the printers. I hate it!! And my boss is such a tool who thinks he is so smart even though a normal work day for him is 12-4 with an hour break. I was planning of giving my notice tomorrow...despite the fact that I have nothing lined up, but then they give me a freaking raise! And a big one...keep telling me "there will be lots for you to do from now on blah blah" and what do I do all day after that? Look for jobs and surf Perezhilton.com. I swear I used to hate tabloids and I was a positive, creative person. Now I feel like a node in a network who gets off on celebrity trash. Is it all worth it???? I'm confused. I studied IT in college and am I doing that now? NO! I started off doing admin/reception work now I've managed to get myself into accounts/office management which I suppose is a positive climb but it's still not what I want to do with my life. I do not want to be support staff for people who think they're better than you are. I was promised loads of responsibility when I accepted this crappy job, and did I get it? Hells no! Instead my boss handed 75% of it to his damn overaged girlfriend so I spend most of my days blogging on this site and surfing superficial.com (something similiar to perezhilton.com) and get my kicks out of celebrities making complete muppets of themselves to ease the boredom. The job may suck ass right now, but it seems like you've got potential. The fact that they gave you a big raise is a vote of confidence in you and acknowledges your worth to them. Further, try engaging in some projects or work that will make you stand out as a valued employee. Instead of waiting for the phone to ring, organize the stock cabinet or write an article and get published. Go for it!!! |
