I have been in my current job for 1 year now as a booking coordinator for a logistics company. When I started I had no idea of what my workload would be, now I noticed that my coworkers took the opportunity to pass most of their job to me. I’m burned out, can barely take break and end my days totally drained and exhausted, also the same people is harassing me with questions like: “why are you working that slow?” Or the “quality of your job is questionable because…..” continue in comments

I would leave. It's tough to reset boundaries if you didn't set them at the start. It isn't your fault because you didn't know what your workload is supposed to be, but I think it would be pretty hard now without being called "difficult" or something by your coworkers. I've been in this situation before and the only thing that worked was finding a new positon. You don't deserve to be treated this way!

You are not doing it on time” things like that. I know it’s totally my fault because I’m an introvert, but I’m totally frustrated. I love the job and the fact that we are working from home, but now the situation is affecting my health. Should I start looking for another job?

Ah man, this is hard to read, your colleagues seem harsh. I'm gonna play devil's advocate here for a sec, let's say you are working slow or the quality isn't up to par, the responses shouldn't be that way, instead I think your supervisor/manager should talk to you and try to see what is going on to affect the way you work and both of you come up with a plan to make things better. Also, DON'T do other people's work, you're only allowing bad behavior. I was told by my old boss that I'm a "fixer" and It got to the point where everyone would run to me with their issues and I was doing so much I want even hired to do! STOP enabling them, you can help out if it aligns with your work, but teach/show others how to do that they need to do you can reclaim your time. Good Luck! 🤞🏽 Rooting for ya!

Additional Posts in Salary Negotiations

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?
