[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue is that you have to cover her work, right? What are the specific duties that need to be done and could they wait until she comes back? Is there someone else that can cover? Why does her work need to be done when she's out but yours does not? How long do the extra tasks actually take?

You need to gather concrete info on how this is impacting you and take it to your boss. Otherwise it sounds like you're just upset she has a better deal than you got when you were in a similar position.

I agree.  [b]You sound like you are just jealous that she has such a good deal. [/b] But, the only thing that really impacts you is your obligation to cover.  If you can do that and still get your work done, then there is no issue.  If you can't get your work done, you better have good, concrete and identifiable things that aren't happening and why covering for your coworker is the cause.  Right now, you just sound jealous.

And, if I'm remembering correctly, you posted when this was a possibility and weren't happy even before it happened.  That makes your complaints even more suspect.  [/quote]

I doubt the coworker even thinks that it is a good deal.  She has to get up at an absurd hour and all her PTO is taken up by child care.  It also sounds like the family can’t afford the extra child care.  Whereas OP gets to take vacations.  Also, I’m guessing that the coworker is picking up work from 6:30am to when OP arrives.  A lot of my tasks come in after hours.[/quote]
