Pretty pissed (work-related)

[Deleted]

In addition to my regular job duties, I am constantly called upon to do things for others and I do them with a smile on my face. I am also on the events committee and volunteer hundreds of hours of my life outside of work to this bank. I just found out that in the renovation, they are putting me in a fucking CUBICLE in a room the size of my living room at home with three other people. These are people I like but I have zero room and storage space as it is with my existing office because of all the customer info in here and they want to jam me into a cube where everyone else can hear me fart and burp. I feel like this is a huge slap in my damn face....way to make me feel unimportant and unappreciated.

I am also about to take on some extremely important job duties that will require much more of my attention than ever before (probably with no pay increase) and
I am seriously hurt by this asshole move. I don't know if I can get over it. Yes, I am thankful I have a job I love, but when they go to jacking with my office space, I am not above showing my ass. :@

That def sucks. I always found they wanted me to do more with less pay and would take away as much as they could. Is it temporary for the reno or that IS the permanent result of the reno?

[sunshineluv]

Ouch, sorry!!!

It looks like it's permanent and my boss says there is nothing he can do about it. Someone please show me the silver lining!

My company has renovated a lot of their buildings. They took away most all of the offices of people. Employees got really mad and insulated about it but it was to have more space. Cubicle city which sucks.

I totally understand because I got kicked out of my office once so a higher level person could move in. If you work on stuff that is confidential or what not can you make a case for an office to be reconsidered?

I bet they just stick a file cabinet somewhere in the room and call it a day. They haven't even asked if I am still pumping.

That really sucks. I would have big issues if I had to work in the open portion of our building after all this time in an office.

That sucks girl! I hope showing your ass helps

Silver lining? I work in a cube, and I love chatting with my cubemate.

LOL, well, about a year ago there was a farter on the other side of my cube. I couldn't hear rhem but I sure could smell them. +o(

He moved to a different floor though.

Silver lining...you could decorate your cubical. I'll send you a framed pic to hang up . Also get a bear skinned rug. No one fucks with a woman with a bear skinned rug. NO ONE

Especially if her ass is laying on it naked in the middle of the office, eh?

Ick, I went through an office renovation and it was not fun. Sorry they are doing that to you. Hopefully it will be over quickly. Hugs.


EDITED - because I just read and you say this is permanent. Why the f are doing renovations then?

They are reno-ing an old part of the building to put us in.

Oh gosh, I'm sorry! That's a huge bummer.
