13 more years (kind of a rant)

I have 13 more years before I can retire and get a good penison. I have no idea how I am going to make it. I have been in my job for 13 years and I know everything inside and out. It is beyond boring. There are no opportunities for advancement.

Beyond that.. I work in a profession where people just lie to my face and don't respond to me... they don't do their job and for some unknown reason no one will discipline them.

I spend my day running after them begging them to simply answer me and they don't. And I am so sick of it.

My boss also doesn't answer me. That makes me miserable because I sit around all day waiting for the response. He is also horrible at planning and if I take a day off that is when he decides to do most of his work.. usually messing it up in the process and making other people do my job which is obviously frowned on. I have spoken to him about it and either he doesn't care or, more likely, can't remember. I have tried to take days off when he said he was going to be out... but then he comes in?

I am soooo sick of my phone. People call me constantly with dumb questions and I don't want to call them back and... I haven't. I know I could get in trouble for it but I just can't bring myself to call them back. Ironically.

I have never messed up anything for this boss and still he doubts me and gives me dumb things to do. Monday I had something for someone to do and he told me to set up a meeting. If the person isn't in... you go to the duty person... but it takes sometime to determine if the person is in. I get this e-mail from him going... "make sure you all her because she might not be in on the holiday" NO CRUD SHERLOCK. I have been doing this job of 13 years! This isn't day one.

GAWD.

Why is there so much lack of respect for me. I have KILLED it ever day since being in his employ (about 2 years ago) and he seems bound and determined to find me in some sort of an error.. but he never can because I know what I am doing. And instead of being grateful for that fact he has to attempt to interfere and 1/2 do my job. While he doesn't do his own.

I am so sick of the lack of discipline. I am so sick of the ignoring rules. I am so sick of the failure to punish people that don't do their job on the outside but I could get in trouble for almost anything.

Yesterday someone asked for an appointment with me and my boss. I asked if 12 PM was ok and I never received a response. I am getting calls from my boss asking if they are coming, I call them, they don't respond.. I spend 30 minutes calling around.. not only do they show up.. but they don't even tell me they are at the front desk. I wasted an hour with that foolishness but just had to stuff it under and take them to the meeting.

Just hate it.
