i am so angry and hurt right now...... we just hired a new employee at my company........ i did all the training of this new person (even though i've only been working there a few months) and she still makes a zillion mistakes and i have to check all her work (my boss told me to), plus she spends half her day screwing around...... well i heard her on the phone today with her friend and she said how much she makes..... it's more than i make! and i have more experience than she does, and all my coworkers tell me all the time that i'm invaluable and that i'm the best person who's ever held my position. my boss told me the same thing just last week, and he gave me a raise, but i'm still making less than her. i also have tons more experience, why is he paying her more than me?? i'm busting my *** and working so hard and then i get disrespecte like this? all it does is reinforce that i'm freaking worthless. i cant quit, i need the job, but i'm so upset about this. maybe i'm making a big deal out of nothig but i dont think its fair, i work really hard and i do a good job. what is it about me? i swear its in my genes somewhere.

sorry to rant so much but this really really bothers me......i've been doing pretty good lately but now i feel awful and worthless again, i hate feeling like this but i can't help it.
