😤What's something your employer says to you before giving you more work without increasing your compensation?

"So and so is going on maternity leave..." Oh great so instead of hiring another person, that becomes something we (meaning me) need to deal with? Right, right...

Haha great question… “this is for your development”.

I get some recognition or a compliment, then boom, more work. Now every time someone says something nice, I’m conditioned to expect the worst.

If you recently got hired it could be something to the effect of
"This is something that this role does, check your email for specifics"

What courses, or resources do you have to make that jump? Can my portfolio have made up projects for this? I feel like I’m starting all over in design school! Haha.
