Are you kidding me...

I just spent the past 6 months bending over backwards for this company and this department. I worked late nights, I worked weekends, I used my own personal resources to validate things for this company because their network is soooo bad that it could not support half the testing... using my own personal computer was more stable!! I have never backed down when asked to do things that were not within my responsibilities. And now I ask if I can work from home because as an analyst I am now doing the Project Manager functions in addition to my own and this is the response I get: "There’s no specific due date for this yet. I think it’s probably going to be in June though. We normally don’t allow working from home. " I bend over backwards and asking to work from home to get some peace and quite and less interruptions is now an issue??? HELL NO!! Something is going to change. I am so frustrated right now, and quite honestly I'm not giving my all anymore, I'm simply going to do my job and let's see how much they appreciate that. Companies just don't realize how much of a difference they can make if they just listen. This is a progressive workforce and some companies get it. And I guess some just don't. If I get asked to stay late, I'll just say I can't, if I get asked to work over time, I'll just say I'm busy, it's not like I get over time anyway. Screw this. I know I'm in some kind of mood right now.Maybe the fact that I locked my keys in the trunk this morning while filling up my car with gas in an effort to get to work EARLIER is what started this day the way it's going...only to find out that when I called AAA and they came out, the guy told me since the keys are in the trunk that he could not open the car because it would set the alarm off and the fact that I did not have the keys to disalarm it we wouldn't be able to open the trunk! Well, great! I don't have a spare, they're at home. He has to drive me home, I have to track down a manager because my apartment keys were in the car and of course the leasing office to my apartments are closed becuase it's still to early in the morning. And this guy from AAA is kindly waiting for me to get all this (he doesn't have to do any of this) and I finally get the manager and the keys, but yeah....that's been my morning!!!

Here we go, I just got a phone call from someone asking a technical question for the application we are trying to build and I just passed it on to someone else. This is the beginning of my lack of interest in this place. And they will see a difference. Just telling me that I've made such a difference since I've started here is not enough. Now you have to start showing me. My review is coming up in a couple of weeks. I will have a few things to say.
