This is my wife. All of her clients love her, but the people she works for always hate her.
Omg that describes my work experience perfectly.
Do you also tend to learn a new job very quickly and actually put effort into doing well? I'm convinced that's why she's had trouble at every job she's had.
At every job, her manager also had the same job duties, so my suspicion is that they secretly resent having to work harder to not look bad.
Yea, and then get burned out and bored because it stagnates and no recognition happens for going above and beyond to do well. I additionally get frustrated when I suggest optimizations (something I’m just wired to find) and they are ignored. Even when they could make a huge positive impact.
Sort of a double-whammy for never wanting to stay put long. About a year is the most I can stay with a single job before it all gets overwhelming (lack of recognition, hostility, burnout).
My current job wanted me to move into management to make these things happen, but I don’t want -more- work, I want to have my perspective appreciated damnit!
