Boss never at work!!?

Question

My boss is never ever at work. Ever. She calls in 4-5 days a month. She gave herself a hefty raise and told us there was no money in the budget to give any of us a raise. She is making at least 20 grand more then the next person up, and the rest of us are paid dirt. I work in a Chamber of Commerce so she doesnt have another boss. Just the board and they dont really know/care what goes on. What can I do without risk of losing my job?


I am looking for a new job, but they are hard to come by. I do have a degree, so I know I wont be stuck here forever. THis situation just erks me.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Sometimes you just have to let it go. Especially when there is nothing you can do to control the actions of others, and in this situation, may even jeoprodize your job or your integrity by staying something. Let her dig her own grave. As long as she is getting her job done, why do you care? And if she isn't, someone is going to notice eventually and then you'll get your just desserts by watching her walk out with her with her belongings in a cardboard box.

Answer 3

your boss can give herself a raise? that's certainly not a good place to work, where people can increase their own wages. that doesn't make any sense. just keep looking for a new job and keep your views to yourself. that will work out much better than if you tried something while still working there.

Answer 4

Your boss is never at my and mine doesn't go home.
What a shame.

Answer 5

you're doing right look for another job... and that last comment was just too true!
