It's employee and employer review time at my workplace and some of you know the issues I have had there. It has not gotten any better.

Question four was "What do you like least about working here?" and I was honest... a page and a half worth of honesty.

Long story short, the one woman that likes to talk down to and be snide with anyone she feels like was overheard talking to me like that by the owner of the company while my direct supervisor was out. I talked to him, he talked to my boss and my actual review in the conference room is today.

The confusion comes in at her asking me yesterday if I want to "rewrite" my review. I don't understand this question. There isn't anything in there I want to take back but the real conundrum is why this question is being posed to me in the first place. Any one of you guys have any Human Resources experience out there? Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks

I know this is a rather random topic but it merits some light on it.

Faith... not in a religious sense but in a very personal sense. 

How much faith do you have in yourself, what you do and your place in the world at large?

I find myself wavering wildly on this one at times. Some days I'm taking over the planet and the next I don't feel worthy of the socks I'm wearing. I know some of it's a very natural thing (we all have great days and off days) but I think the demands of my job and the minimal compensation is having a negative effect on me.

This has come to light for me recently because of my job and all it demands of my time and all it requires me to know... and how very little my pay is. I've made almost twice as much doing half the work in the past and I think it's time for me to have a little faith in myself and start looking for another job.  Mind you I am grateful to be gainfully employed but at the same time I feel like I am being used and under-appreciated at times too... I blew this feeling off at first thinking "hey everyone feels this way at times" but when co-workers start saying things like wow I hope this place is giving you your due because you do the work of 5 people... it's time to think about moving on/up. 

All comments, thoughts and stories are welcome... comment away please!

Ok I have been on a fic posting roll so time for something different ne? I am in between jobs at the moment and while enjoying the time with my family and with you guys here on Lj it's not exactly profitable. I was wondering if anyone had any leads on some legitimate online work or a place that's looking for newbie writers (you guys know me I'll take a crack at anything from comedy to smut so no need to be shy while suggesting) links are appreciated if you have them. ^_^

In other news:

I have lost a few pounds so yay for that. 

I have polished my page designing skills by redoing the layout for [livejournal.com profile] fandomwords100 (go check it out you know you want to)

I have made it through most of of the laundry pile (laundry is the devil, it never goes away...tell me I'm wrong?)

I am still working on the giftfcs from this post HERE  
note[info]nochick_fics gift went haywire and is over the 2000 word mark and climbing (but I blame her for putting the idea of plants/tentacle porn in my demented little brain) anywho... with that said it's hard to tell what you guys will get...may be a bit longer than a drabble.
