Overworked and Under-everything-else

Like many people in the world, I have a job. A job I go to most every day and spend hours upon end doing work for myself, my program, and my division. All of us, in one way or another, are expected to work together for a common goal; whatever your mission statement is at that moment. But there are those of us in our places of employment who do more work than everyone else. And there are those of us in our places of employment do little to nothing everyday. It is those people who do little to nothing everyday that those who do everything, everyday hate.

I am one of those people who does a little of everything, not because I want to, but because "other duties as assigned" seems to be my middle name. I look at my calendar and there is so much written down I need to accomplish, I get sent into a mild panic attack. There isn't a day on my calendar that doesn't have at least one meeting scheduled. Most weekends I'm working too. Typically, it is only Sunday that allows me a day of rest. But Sunday's are not off limits to the bounds of work as well.

So while I am most definitely over worked. I also feel under-everything else. Under appreciated, under paid, under valued, (miss) understood and a whole plethora of other adjectives. I'm tired of doing my job and everyone elses' job too. There is too many things to do, too little time to do them all and even less time to recover from all those things.
