I work for a major energy company and since last September my boss has asked me to start working on my promotion – this included completing 3 training courses and a presentation. I completed the last course this year and it’s just the presentation which I’m halfway through. I had all intentions of completing it until I heard that these new employees that I trained were hired on at a higher grade than me without doing the training or presentation. Honestly it made me mad and hate the job even more and I just stopped taking the presentation seriously but my boss kept reaching out to me multiple times and now it has reached HR.
Earlier this year I was also interviewing for my dream job and was 90% sure I’d get hired until last month when they rejected me.
Genuinely I feel like
– I don’t want to do this presentation, I’m just stressed out..I work 4 weeks in the middle of nowhere and get 10 days home
– Im unhappy with this job and my life atm, when I’m home I just avoid any work thoughts and find ways to survive and enjoy life
– I should just be given the promotion why do I need to do a presentation, other business lines in the same company aren’t doing this
I know I’m making excuses but this is the honest truth I just haven’t been putting any effort into this but now it’s reached HR and I guess I have no choice.
Any advice? They’re asking when will it be done but I’m just so stressed out already and feel like I’m spiraling and on the verge on a nervous breakdown
