3+ years I gave to the company as an overnight worker (office setting). Was offered a promotion finally and secured myself an amazing 30% payraise to relocate 150 miles and get onto dayshift, I make $65,000 annual salary.
It's just me and one other person, I used to have more support at my old location but now I am solely responsible for EVERYTHING 3 of my 4 working days.
My primary role was dispatch, but now they have added more responsibilities with safety/compliance/vehicle maintenance (I work in transportation), and to top it off I already have to take overnight calls so I am on call 24/7. I will sometimes get calls at 1am, 3am, 5am its just insane how little work life balance there is on my working days.
I pride myself as going above and beyond but I feel so frigging overwhelmed right now and anxiety ridden like literal crash and burn on my days off because of how stressful this crap is. We have told our bosses we are drowning and need more help, doing all of this work with 2 people is just absolutely mental. They talked of getting us a part time “admin helper” has not come to fruition.
I want to start new somewhere but damn I know the grass is not always greener on the other side, I used to have more autonomy but they are pushing oversight on all of our decisions so I feel bad if I make small mistakes.
Corporate companies suck, end of rant.
