Feeling Under Appreciated Today

August 4th, 2015 at 07:18 pm

We had the new water line put in last week. I am excited to see how much my bill is going to be. I will be very disappointed if it doesn't go down much.

I am looking good financially until the end of August. DD had enough financial ad to cover her first 3 months of rent in the dorm. That is being split three ways. So it saved me about $600 total.

As to why i am feeling under appreciated...I was in a meeting with my boss, and the other leadership team members...a total of 4 other people. I am not on the leadership team, I am what they are calling "support Staff". Well, they had lunch called in for them while they were in the meeting and my big boss, said lets buy everyone lunch. Then my direct boss said "because we are rolling in so much money" and laughed. It just is insulting to me. Money is tight right now, but if you are going to buy for one, you should buy for all. I mean an additional 30 is not going to bankrupt us. It just really rubbed me the wrong way. IMO, we shouldn't be buying lunch for anyone right now. We used to be a team and it felt like a team. But lately it is feeling more like us and them, which I know is not what my big boss intended. I am the employee that had been here the longest and seen the most change so I know that is not what he wants. But I don't know how to bring it up to him without it getting back to my boss and having repercussions about it. I will probably just keep my mouth shut and do my work. But it is really bothering me. If I could find another job making the money I make, I would definately consider it right now.

Anyway, that is my rant for the day.

    Sorry to hear you don't feel appreciated. That isn't fun. I hope tomorrow is better!

    Ironic, isn't it, that the leadership team gets a free lunch and the support staff members -- who make much less -- don't. Typical. It sounds like the big boss was trying to make it right, and your immediate supervisor was insensitive. I've seen this kind of behavior over and over again and it poisons company morale.
