ahhh! I'm so frustrated.

seriously. I am so PO'd...I'm sick to death of the job I have. god. and I hate feeling this way. so today is boss' day, right? and I work for 3 attorneys. no one mentioned anything about doing a gift from the team or anything and I was kind of like, ok, well, guess we won't do one. but this morning I was feeling gracious and thought we should at least do a little something. so, I email everyone and say if you want to contribute to a gift card to a little cafe downstairs, let me know by 10. so, 10 comes and goes, and get a couple of dollars from folks. I go down, get cards for all 3 and gift certificates for 2 (the other one has an assigned paralegal and I thought it was really her role to get a "gift") - anyway, I get back and the senior paralegal has responded and said the main boss is a stickler for firm policy of "no gifts" - now, what does that mean? and why is she just now responding? and then she says, but I'll contribute if the group does. wtf? does that mean? so, I just gave them all the cards and kept the gift cert. for now. I mean, I'd look like a dumbass. this is just the latest in a line of things that piss me off here. what's a bitch to do? I'm so over it. I need to find something else, seriously. and not to mention that everything they told me in my interview to get me here was a lie. I left a job I had been at for 4 years with senior classification...come and go as I please, preapproved overtime and working for the big partner. they lied to get me here and now I'm screwed.

anyway, thanks for letting me vent.
