42. I like it in my profession

Wed Feb 19, 2014, 07:21 PM

Feb 2014

Honestly, I am damn good at what I do. I am consistently rated the top manager in my department and get nice raises. I have received 4 raises in the last 13 months. Frankly, I deserve more than my peers. I work harder, work more hours, handle more difficult tasks more efficiently, etc. In short, I provide more value to the company than my peers do. I expect to make more money.

My profession is unionized in Wisconsin (I had an insurance client there) and the workers all left at five and did little beyond what was needed. I saw no one there working to excel or differentiate themselves from their peers. That is fine and great for those that desire that. Personally, I know my skills are known within the city I live in and I would be able to find a job easily. I honestly am not interested in stunting my growth for someone who won't work as hard as I will.
