My current boss would be lost without me. From day one I worked as hard as possible to make him look good. I gave him all the tricks of the trade so he could cheat like everyone else. I did other people's jobs so he could get things done. He has never had anything go wrong.. and has no idea how wrong they can go.
So I have asked him nicely not to do something... that means I will have to go into work for a 15 minute meeting. Costing me $20 in commute fees. And general aggravation. And he continues to ignore me and set down these 15 minute meetings which I will need to come in for on a day I don't have anything. When easily he could just do it on the next day when I will need to be in for something else. Just a jerk move. It hurts. I don't understand why no one ever thinks of me or my comfort? I am considering calling out sick. I mean is that the way I have to be? |

It’s a job. It provides a paycheck. It doesn’t provide appreciation, satisfaction or comfort. All of that should occur outside the job. If you don’t need the job, don’t come in for the meetings. Some people have to go in every day for 8+ hours, it could be worse. Personally I need my job and would go in, but that’s me. Maybe you can get along without your job.

Being unappreciated by the higher ups is like many of us feel. That’s so unfortunate.
They take us for granted or elevate and reward selected few. We have a couple of people who are always in the bosses’ offices trying to socialize and they are the ones that get recognized. Those of us who have no time to socialize with the boss aren’t being recognized. I have a few bosses, none of them are really bad and they treat me ok but I am not being constantly recognized the way they recognize others. One is useless and acts afraid of me because I know more about the job. And the other one is a nice guy but he loves flirty young women who like to dress revealingly. I am not flirty or inappropriate so I am not being noticed I hear you. Sometimes taking a sick day is the way to go. |

My job provides be with lots of satisfaction. But none of that comes from administration. It would be nice to be respected and appreciated by the bosses. It helps with overall morale. Helps with overall job and life satisfaction I am sure OP needs her job or she’d not put up with her bosses and would be long gone |

If job satisfaction wasn’t important, then administration wouldn’t be concerned about work place morale. Our bosses like to send surveys asking what could they do to increase morale. But they do nothing. No changes are ever made

We get surveys too, but because nothing changes I stopped participating. I do what I need to do at work with no expectations of recognition and do what I enjoy after work.
