the woes of the professional world. ugh.
i love my job, i really do. but i hate the politics that has to go on in the business arena.
1. my temp laptop was stolen about a month ago. i got a psychological beating for it (even though it wasn't my intention to have the laptop stolen). my insurance won't cover the computer. operations manager hates me. it just looks bad. i show up to work pregnant, and then i lose their computer. i do all of my work, i do it well. but i probably won't move up as quickly because a few people have a grudge against me.
2. im only eligible for about a week of pay when my daughter is born. i'll have to take 2 months of UNPAID leave. my position is garaunteed for when i return, but still. there goes my end of year premium, (when i need it the most), my vacation advance, everything. yeah, i dont even have vacation days accrued yet. i would have been eligible for a week in december because of the 6 months of service. but since i'll be out for two months (unpaid leave = interruption of service) my vacation won't be available until FEBRUARY.
the corporate world sucks. it was so much easier being an hourly. but i guess the benefits that come with being salary outweighs the crap that comes with it. *sigh*
and i'll have to pay $800 out of pocket for the insurance if i want to keep it. (which... i kinda HAVE to. jesus.)
Annie is going to be a princess. the whole world is already looking out for her. im just really sad i won't get more time to watch her grow and learn.
8 more weeks. im not anywhere near prepared for this. holy shit.
