Today was rough, understaffed and busy patients.

I have always been one to lend a hand to a coworker and I'm efficient with my own work. So very often I'm taking on additional tasks. Today I just couldn't do more than I was assigned because my patients needed much more from me. My coworker was a little spicy about it.

I feel like I do extra so often that maybe others have come to rely on it.

How do you handle those expectations?

That's exactly the problem with going above and beyond. It's like the old saying, no good deed goes unpunished. If you help out all the time, people just come to expect it, and then when you can't do it they hold it against you. It's a lousy situation really, by doing a great job you can wind up catching more flak than people who are perpetual slackers. But, as long as you're doing right by your patients, you're doing the right thing, just take satisfaction in that.

This actually happened to me yesterday OP. We were already short and then another person called out and it everything got dumped on me. I was extremely stressed all day and it felt like the longerst day ever. When people get upset I just let them be upset. Sometimes you have to do what is best for you.

Has anyone else had a mentor (assigned to them by the Company) who seemed to have it out for you? I mean downright sabotage to make you look bad left and right. I didn’t realize it at first. She was fake friendly, but she was discrete too. Some of the executives thought she was amazing, but I had to clean up her work all the time. She wasn’t above me either on the chain of command. Later I found out she had tried for the exec assistant role and they didn’t choose her, they wanted me instead.

Hi Everyone,
I need your views and suggestions. I have two doubts:
1. Is it fair to leave an organisation (big brand) after a year as the environment is real toxic and there’s no career growth as well in terms of good work.
2. If I have to make a switch do I really have to target big brands only or can try for medium and small size companies too.
