I was laid off for 3 months last year, so I'm grateful for my job. (I have 2 young children, so unemployment was extra stressful)
But, I don't really like what I do. I process a lot of paperwork. I work Customer Service for a Printer, so I create Part Specs, production orders, etc. We do make some interesting products and the people are nice, but the paperwork is boring, and sometimes overwhelming. I've been here for 9 months, and am still learning.
Pay is OK, but they just made us all Salary Nonexempt (or is it Exempt- I always confuse the two). We are the ones that do NOT get paid for overtime, but are expected to work it. My review is today, so we will see what my raise will be. If it isn't to at least what I was making with OT, then I'm going to tell my boss that I was making X amount a year with OT (not tons- 4-5 hours a week) AND expecting a raise...
If they say talk to us in a year at your next review, I will probably have some big decisions to make.
But I'm trying to stay positive and be grateful for my job.
