Ok Jamie…off my back gal, you know I’ve been busy!!
(last comment on previous post for those of you who are confused)
trying to update the site, not to mention with x-mas stuffies :uhoh3
thank you all for your feedback on the new look :notworthy but any information on the IRL model will need to be directed to the artist :rofl
now…I have a bit of a dilemma for you guys, a “what would YOU do” type thing if you will…
pretty much anyone who reads my blog regularly will know that I work Night audit at a local Best Western, been there over 2 years now, and tend to get called on allot with various problems that arise (since I seem to be the only one that knows my job and how to fix them) not to mention all around tech guru for the parent company.
Back in Oct., when my old GM left, and the new one was in place, there was another girl hired who had worked at another BW, not with the same owner though…but she knew about BW standards, etc…and came on board…
I recently found out that she was hired at the same wage that it took me 2 YEARS to obtain…and all she’s pretty much managed to do is piss everyone off by rambling on about how much work she does, to include paperwork! (:confused11 she wants to see paperwork, let her come work with me one night!!!)
Needless to say, I’m a bit PISSED OFF about this matter…and I know what I would have done in my younger days (hopefully, I’ve calmed a bit since then..:lol) and what I want to do now…
what I want to know is, what would you do in my shoes?
*edited to add this…couldn’t resist!!*
At this stressful time of year, who couldn’t use this. ‘Tis the season!
Inner Peace:
I am passing this on to you because it has definitely worked for me.
By following the simple advice I read in an article, I have finally found
inner peace — — the article read:
“The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you’ve started.”
So I looked around the house to see all the things I started and hadn’t finished — — and before coming to work this morning, I finished off a bottle of red wine, a bottle of white wine, one of Bailey’s Irish Cream , Kahlua, one Tia Maria, my Prozac, 1/2 bottle of Vodka some valium, my cigarettes and a box of chocolates.
You have no idea how freakin good I feel —
lmao@finishing things off! Now, about the other thing… with my company now doing outside hires most of the new managers make MORE than the long term ones. It’s sad, but it’s part of business now days. My only advice is when it comes time for your review, I would make a written list a resume of sorts, stating what you do and have done for the company along with a raise you have in mind.
but its not a manager I’m refering to (could understand that! LOL) she’s just a desk clerk, and an entry level one at that!!
hmmm…you could do what I’ve been told to do: document everything and put it on your time sheet…OT baby!
And for long term, I’d do what lois said…just document all the time you put in and what you do, and bring it to your review…this is something that’s mandatory at my work..and one good thing about it is that you can bargain for your raise that way…
Well personally, as I told you on the phone, the last part of your post is so me *big grin*.
