work
Well, I don't know if I've told you all this, but things at work have not been running very smoothly as of late.
About a year ago, they instituted some major changes in the office. We are two seperate offices that work in conjunction with one another. I work for the Provost office and there is also the President's office. We work in the same area, together, yet we are both seperate. Since we work together, we always do work for both offices. No big deal. However, something we were doing, was not "working out" for the President's office (basically telling my old supervisor that she wasn't hacking it...). Because of this, one of the people that works for the President, decided that she was just going to take over the "student workers" (that's me) and we were going to now start reporting to her.It just started causing a bunch of raucous in the the office all around. All of the fun that we used to have in the office is gone. We aren't allowed to go to lunch with our bosses, we aren't allowed to play on the internet..(like that worked), they were going to make us wear uniforms. It is just a bad situation over here. Even the regular employees hate it here. We aren't allowed to converse. People are afraid to say anything to anyone about anything, because it will find it's way to the person who was not supposed to hear it.
Well anyway, I've been 'targeted' as of late. <---no pun intended but it is due to my tardiness (partly). I had that meeting with my supervisor the other day, and she told me that the other students were complaining about it (which they weren't cause I asked them) and that I am causeing tention around here because I still refuse to accept the fact that their office is in charge now. I won't get too into it, but I just hate it around here. I really do. And it's not just me. They don't get that we are STUDENTS first, workers second. It is stressfull here, and not because I do so much work...that is not the case. It just is.
My old roommate Jes's mom works on campus, but in a different department, and she knows about the situation over here. She has a job opening and has asked me if I would like it. (I did not solicite the job.) The best part is, she works in PR and special events. I am majoring in PR and special events, so this is perfect for me. Plus, it could not come at a better time. The only thing that I am worried about is the fact that I have just gotten in trouble and told that evaluations are coming up, and that my tardiness will reflect poorly on those evaluations...I don't want it to look like I am just trying to get out of my job because I got in trouble you know. And I would be going to work in my friends mom's office (they all know her here too.)
Jes used to work here, but quit because she got in trouble for wearing too short of shorts. She quit on a friday and by monday was working at another place on campus. I can remember what everyone was saying about her, and I'm afraid they will do the same about me. That really isn't the reason i'm leaving.
It is just that this job is stressful, and it is not a good situation over here. I wanted to go work over in PR and now that I've been offered a job, I want to take it. I just don't know how to go about telling them...
