I'm going to make this as short as I can and vague just in case.
Last year I was given different duties at my job. After having it for a year with little training at the beginning and seeing how important and serious it is I decided to look and see if there was anything in our policies. I find that the duty is specifically listed under responsibilities of positions higher than mine and not to mention much higher pay than mine. I haven't had any kind of raise to do this duty and they gave me another job that used to be split amongst 2-3 people to do all by myself ALONG with it. Fed up and knowing how the top boss in my office sweeps everything under the rug the best she can, I decided to write a letter of complaint to HR. After consulting others they suggested to at least tell my direct supervisor. I do so and he suggests to go to the boss first to see if it can be resolved. Partially for laughs, I say okay and she reads the letter, comes to me and just straight up tells me that I'm incorrect on the responsibilities falling under a higher employee. No explanation as to why it would be in our job classification under a higher employee, just that I'm wrong. She goes on to say that she guesses it just doesn't work for me and how she's going to trade my duties with someone of the same level as me. That was her “resolution”. Trying to put it on someone else who would be in the same situation as I. I know how much I have done for them too. All I got through everything was “good job”, “you're amazing”, “you're the best”. I used to have the same duties as the other people my level. I was always ahead in my work by months. Now, it's much more stress. All for checks notes the same pay. While I'd be happy to go back and I do not like the idea of shrugging it off onto someone else.
I have so much more to say, but at least I got this part out somewhere even if it's just a void. Still sent the letter to HR, but every time I think of how she told me I'm wrong it makes me question myself and I guess my competence. I never really talk up about anything so being wrong scares me especially since I feel like the bosses feelings about me have changed for the worse which is bad because what I do I have to go to her if I need anything for my duties. My direct supervisor wouldn't be able to help let alone know what to do as he has no idea what I do exactly. Excited to hear about how many times she rolls her eyes in reference to me when I'm not standing in front of her. Something that I have been there for when she does that with other employees.
