The problem is that I feel like they're making me do work that they really should be doing if they want to be productive, but they feel it would be beneath them. I do not consider myself to be their lesser, and do not appreciate being treated as such.

Wow that one struck a cord with me. Damn. I feel like slapping the people at work who treat me (and others) this way. OF course, given my recent promotion, that doesn't happen to me so often now, but I know one instance that is occurring where a repeated power trip has someone on the verge of quitting. It makes me sick.

Also: I know I've called for Jhayne excpecting you to recognize my voice and/or asking some of those questions in the past, and I am sorry. In my defense, generally it has been based upon her telling me it would be okay to call beforehand. I hope I've cleaned up after myself when I've been over, although I think I've left a plate a couple of times. I think we all forget that we art legion. I apologize.
