It was actually a pretty good gig and the reason I went back. The generation after mine for the most part stopped trying and are content. We have always groomed from within, but as of late that is not working.

The other one is a feeling of, "man, you people are screwed when I leave" and giggling about it while applying for new jobs.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with this type of bs. But this is also why I'm two pay bands below her at the company and have to work nights. Either way this so-called "upstairs" love to threaten us with layoffs and outsourcing. The next round is coming real soon. On the bright side I get to have my car back tmr. New parking brake shoes and rear rotors. |

Your Mom is exactly right. There is almost no one at a company that isn't replaceable. Chances are you replaced someone when you came onboard, and eventually someone will replace you. The machine will continue to roll on.

Since there is usually only one person in my field in each place I have ever worked this has been every vacation for 30 years now. Well 20 years I guess since the first 10 meant carrying a pager not a cell phone. The only thing I hated more than getting calls was not getting them. No calls meant either things were horribly wrong and nobody wanted to be the one to tell me or they were doing great and may decide I wasn’t needed anymore.

Secondly, any group manager should have a second in command. Just think what would happen in a military unit if there weren't a chain of command. Maybe the designated second in command wouldn't be as effective, but it still they would be better than having no one in charge. I'd suggest you be careful with the thought that you are indispensable - I sure hope your work situation stabilizes, before you wind up burnt out - humfrz |
