I work at an office job that's mostly tech support, so when no one needs help I'm working on my own stuff. It's part of why i wanted to work here. Now they want to overhaul the website and want new graphics for all the staff in our department, like at least 50 people. And they want me to do it all twice, because they want posters, and somehow the stuff for the website won't work for the posters. And all these graphics require information they haven't given me, so I have to spend an hour on each one digging around before i can even start. And they want these 100 graphics done by the end of the month.
If they hired someone out to do this, they'd have to pay double what i make. I don't feel like i can just not do it, because suddenly my boss is checking in on me every 2 hours instead of maybe once a day, and I'm the newest person here. I'm already getting burnt out, and it comes at a time I'm kinda hurting for cash and was GOING to spend my time trying to do some side hustling. I've gotten some higher ranked people to try to tell her it's too much too, but she just doesn't want to accept that. I already know there's no point in negotiating pay.
Any advice on how i can gently make this project go away, or at least try to benefit from it?
