Can I vent about my job?

I hate it.
We are swamped right now and I worked some extra time at home so I could get caught up and feel comfortable with what I had due. Fabulous right? Wrong. Boss sees that I have nothing due for 2 days and makes me help out douche CW, who is also the one lying and saying I've been giving her cell phone # to clients because she's so far behind (yet barely comes in 6 hrs a day and never takes her laptop home). Then the person who sets up my stuff has apparently been stockpiling and sent me a dozen new things with short deadlines.
This morning I come in and my boss tells me that "oh, I'm going to take on this other project" and dumping all his sh^t on me.
I'd like to look for something internal but I'll never be able to from where I'm at (we have to notify our direct sup to even apply).
Gahhhh.....

Wow, that's shitty. Do you want advice about what to do or just to vent?

Mostly just to vent. I know I need to find something else, but I'm screwed in that my field is somewhat specialized and there is really only 1 other employer here who does what I do. I should just bite the bullet and go back to my old job and take a pay cut. At least I'll work with fun people.

Yeah, it can be hard to balance pay with a bad work environment. I mean, when it's really bad it's obvious, but when it's just sometimes bad? Good luck with whatever you do.

Sorry you're having a sucky time

I feel the same way you do. I work hard and get my stuff done which means more stuff piles on me. To the point where I cant get it all done. Today was my breaking point. Vent away. I feel it too.
