I hope everyone is doing okay. After taking a day or so alone and able to think a bit, after talking to a friend and not having anything to lose…

I applied to a high, executive position. I’m taking that risk to leave behind what has caused so much anxiety and where a working person doesn’t matter. We are never mentioned, not mentioned or thanked. We’re an afterthought, in my opinion. Recently I noticed a couple deposits to my account for $55 minus taxes is like $30 and it was labeled as an award? Although grateful it’s not even enough for two chick-fil-a meals. To me it means I’m undervalued and underpaid because I’ve been doing double-duty for nearly four months already with no additional pay. When I came on board, I was only doing 50% of the work. A gift card would’ve been better to spend it all on coffee.

I have tested the waters at interviewing, getting out there and networking. I’ve added value to my resume and career including personal development. I’m okay with rejection, the goal is to not give up. I’m speaking 1% positive each day to myself and others if possible. I’m different from my supervisor. I don’t bark.

I feel I went through a dark period nearing ten months now. I understand, am not upset at all. I see the light at the end of the tunnel. Amen! My supervisor tries to control, wants everyone to do things her way, nay sayer, very traditional, everyone has to do things her way otherwise she will feel she’s wrong, so I have to do just like her. I will not jump on that bandwagon otherwise I will continue to be disappointed. All the Best!
