Believe me, right now it feels like everybody has more seniority then I do...

Why do Mega-Corps feel it is their duty to buy ridiculously expensive and complicated programs and "centralize" things that were being handled just fine before?

And why do they ask for your input when they KNOW they are going to ignore it?

And they why do they blame the faults in their system on the employees not being sufficiently committed?

:sigh:

At least I am still employed for the moment. Several other people are not.

Been there. Done that.
Agonized over what input I could give (when asked) and realized my paranoia was well-founded.
They won. (They think.)
When raise time came round, I got an “A” in “Keeping Equipment clean and in good working order,” but for the next 10 items, I ranked lower than whale doo-doo.
Therefore, I was expendable, even though I was asked several times to tutor other CSRs who were less computer savvy than I was.
And I always had to work weekends, which were the heaviest times. WHY? Because I was good at what I did. They just didn’t like me. Idiots.

Hang tough, honey.

Because they want you to feel involved.

You need to study the Dilbert Chronicles more. They explain everything.
