Another Day, Another Dollar...Oh wait...

The responsibilities just keep piling on! Woohoo! I swear every time I go into work they have added one another aspect of the company that I am responsible for. In about two months I have gone from strictly front desk to: front desk, customer service supervisor, administrative manager, head of scheduling the facility space, making sure hard copies of the class schedule is correct, keeping the schedule of classes updated in the computer system, creating all program flyers and tri-folds, updating the website with the latest news and schedule changes, decorating the gym for special events, managing all front desk staff, cleaning the front desk, payroll, staff pictures, HR, and employee files. I feel like there is more. Oh, creating email addresses for all employees and then setting that account up to forward to their personal email because they are too lazy to check their work email. With all of this added responsibility you would think I would be making some big bucks. They have not raised my hourly rate at all. I am doing the job of like 6 people and getting paid only slightly more then the new hires I am constantly cleaning up after. Sweet. That's cool. I don't care. I am only falling behind in school because by the time I finish my ten and a half hour days I fall asleep mid paper or book. I just keep telling myself there is only 7 months left until graduation. Just 7 months to try and keep up with making money for the bills and homework for a degree. 7 months. 7 more months of trying to figure out what the hell the Umass Administration is doing down there in their office that it takes almost a year for the WPE results to show up on my degree audit. 7 more months of working for the Russian mod assuring every customer that yes is the answer. 7 more months of getting looks from teachers that your just the typical slacker who goes out drinking every weekend instead of doing homework. 7 more months of having absolutely no time or energy to go out and have fun with friends unless scheduled weeks in advance so I can get time off and work around my homework. Just 7 more months.
