we don't belong here together--queensryche
hmmmyeah. so. i've been a good little worker bee in the miserable colony, right? i work when i'm sick, i rarely ask for time off, don't complain much, do what i'm told, when i'm told. all with a shit-eating grin. think this would earn me a bit of, oh i dunno, leway yes? apparently not.
i say to the manager this morning "hey, um, my husband wants to take a vacation this summer." and the manager's reply? "oh, i don't think that's gonna happen." gee, thank you. i feel like such a well respected member of the team that i can't even take a fourday weekend to go away with my husband! thanks so much! i will now go back to swilling dog shampoo and breathing hair!
looking over the schedule and how everyone else gets their time off but i'm booked so god damned solid thru september that i can barely see that i am a human being!!! there's no way in hell i can get even a small vacation before mr rabbit has to go back to work in september!
so much for gratitude.
so i told mr rabbit that i'd pay for him to get away for a while if he wanted, maybe go up see his brother or something, but that i just couldn't go. he doesn't think that his brother's schedule will jive and also doesn't want to go without me. sweet but wow that makes me feel really peenassed!
this also means i have to tell dad we aren't gonna be able to come up to see him. one of the few happinesses in dad's life anymore is seeing me. Fffffshhhhhhhmmmmmmrrrrrah!!! pisses me off...
i'm gonna get two tattoos. akh's pawprint and a ryche tat. or something else i dunno, i'm too pissed off to make any sense.

In my workplace those who take off work randomly and neglect, shall we say, to call in during those times, still somehow manage to keep their positions. Yet, the moment The Victorian Gentleman calls in to tell them he is running five minutes late, the walls become unhinged!
I've always wondered how some people are capable of keeping their jobs.

In my experience, being a good reliable employee who can be depended on in a crisis and will do that little bit extra when things are rushed very often gets you nowhere. It isn't appreciated and when you need your boss to do something for you it isn't reciprocated.
Of course, that's only the case when you are working for a shit rather than a decent human being but unfortunately there are quite a few shits around.
If you can, I'd move on. There must be places where you would be treated better and appreciated.

I work with someone who is also considered part-time and she's been there over 20 yrs. I feel a few days should have been earned by now, but if not, how about a few days without pay??
Your employer doesn't seem willing to give even just a little. That truly sucks..
