I am not crazy.
Sounds dignified enough, and it's true. The more days I work here, the more I realize that I am one of the only sane people here. I am sick of my supervisor taking my ideas and claiming them as her own for extra credit with the boss. I don't know how many times I've come up with something to make things easier or a more practical way to do something and before anyone else notices that I came up with it (I don't need any credit for merely doing what I should be doing--but she shouldn't take the credit if there is credit to be given), she stands up to proclaim it to everyone about how clever she is for coming up with this "genius" idea. This from the same supervisor who stomps her feet, whines and cries when she doesn't get what she wants. In any normal job she'd be fired long ago. No one wants to hire a three year old in the body of an anorexic, mid-twenties woman. How utterly annoying. And some may say that I should always make sure others know it was my idea by telling them before she gets that chance--but honestly...like I'm going to make a mountain out of a mole hill. The little things that she grabs onto are things that are not in anyway out of the norm. They are things that any normal, working employee would do, but when she brings them up, she makes them sound like some big woo-hoo discovery and then the boss smiles upon her. Sick.
Anywho--that is just one of the many annoyances that have built up on me over the day. Many of the annoyances have to do with the fact that so much of the system we work with here relies on the states, that on a national holiday like today, it is very hard to get ANYTHING done. The administrators in the states just assume that no one works on federal holidays...I wish they'd wake up and smell the rest of the world.
Here's a quizzy for those who enjoy them. I feel better for having ranted a bit.
