[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are considering quitting over this it is worth having a very direct conversation with your manager about your level of unhappiness and exactly what you want. Maybe say you are unwilling to sustain it more than X months, since you’ve already been doing it for X months. You are a team player and you have taken one for the team but the scope of work, hours, etc. have changed drastically and without a conversation around if you wanted that professionally. If you need income don’t quit without another job. Also, can you take any vacation to reset a little in the meantime? [/quote]

I have told her it was too much already. As of today I am still on this team. I asked again this am and she said we will discuss later, but during our larger meeting it sounded like I am an ongoing member. As for a vacation that is part of the issue: I have next week off and will not be able to be truly off if I have this specific job, which is devastating to me as I am visiting my parents and I want to focus 100% on them as it is the one time I see them yearly. I feel like they are treating me incredibly poorly. [b]I do not need the income in the sense I am not well paid and dh makes a lot more.[/b] [/quote]

Put in your two weeks notice and look for something else. This sentence tells me you have the luxury to do so.[/quote]

Financially we'd be fine, in the sense that we save every month and would still without my income. Our health insurance would double in cost so that part is not ideal. I'm just really angry that my doing a good job led to the destruction of my work schedule and scope of responsibilities, and other people who do not work as hard have a predictable, easy job, getting paid exactly the same as I do. It seems completely backwards.[/quote]
