Apparently, my Branch doesn't manage enough money any more, so I will not be getting my reclassification. I have the largest directorate, the most complex set of files, and the most direct reports, but will continue to be paid less than any of my counterparts. Because I am only a Director, I'm not entitled to a Director who could help me manage the workload. Because there is no DG, I have to do the DG job too - or maybe not. My boss keeps asking what my team could stop doing. Now I know. If all those VP and DG-level meetings are really important, he can go himself or send an actual DG. From now on, I'll be doing the work I'm paid to do anmd go home after 8 or 9 hours like the rst of the management team, instead of working 10-11 hours every day. I might even take lunch! Or at least get back into the habit of heating it in the microwave, instead of eating it cold at my desk every day.

Nuts.

Nobody will thank you in the end. Do what you're paid to do and what keeps your conscience happy.
*hug*

I've learned that public servants have got to take care of themselves. The administration certainly isn't looking out for us. Kudos to sticking to your guns on this one.

Hells bells. Maybe you should leave yr browser open on executive headhunter websites?

I think you do have to choose how much to do and let the rest hang, documenting as you go. It won't take long to notice the change.

That is disappointing.

Taking lunch and going home on time is hardly slacking off. I know I'm guilty of both and I'm trying to get better.

This really sucks. I am so sorry to hear it. It seems that the disrespect starts at the top and they keep getting away with it.
