The Chameleon

I am this close to quitting. Seriously.

First, the inefficient IT goes around all day taking credit for what the whole team has done, which, IT doesn't even take a pinky to lift most of the time.

Second, IT drives me nuts by being needy. I am not a secretary, but I sometimes have to do Yaya duties.

Third, I am at the end of my wits when IT pushes her weight around, despite knowing IT is at fault. IT has never admitted her mistakes.

Fourth, IT volunteers jobs and projects that we are not supposed to be championing. I know that it is good to assert one's self, but I also believe one should not bite off more than one can chew.

Fifth, those extra jobs IT takes--she passes them on to the rest of us, which we have to handle ourselves and then, update IT with the outcome.

Then we go back to the first reason where IT gets the gist of the project and reports it to the top management as though IT was the only one that came up with the idea, worked with it and finished it in record time. I am so full of this shit that I'm terribly afraid I might be unconsciously morphing into someone like IT .

I get blamed for all the bad things, even the ones I have no inkling of. IT has never defended me for me, even while I get reprimanded standing beside her. IT has reasoned out once for the team, but that was because she herself was also being questioned.

Can you believe that load of crap? And the person who is supposed to correct/reprimand IT, instead of demanding an answer from my SUPERIOR, goes straight to me for the blame.

Is this great or what?
