Shrink

Man, Work is just grinding me down, little by little. All of my reps are worried that the new boss is going to make them do the simplistic data entry work of the group that he came from, and I can't tell them that they are wrong as the entire department shrinks - apparently daily. This week alone, we've had four people quit. Luckily, my group has been the most stable group around I haven't had an associate leave since Rick left us more than nine months ago. A couple of years ago we used to be group of about 200, now we are around 75 with the majority leaving this year.

Surprisingly, the more that leave, the more talk builds that others might want to leave. (I hope you knew that was sarcasm).

I wonder why I'm teaching Ed about all of our projects when we may not have time to do any of them. Since the data entry junk takes priority over the more difficult work our group was developed to do, it really doesn't make any difference, does it?

I don't know what to say to the coworkers who come to me asking about job security and wondering about what job expectations are. I don't want to lie, I hate what's happening as much as they do, but I don't want to run them off. Funny thing is, I can't blame them for leaving.

When others are leaving and stating that they will look for a job later, it's really looking grim for our morale.

I've been working long hours and getting nothing done but gaining stress. I'm tired.
