How Do You Define a Good Employee?

Arrive on time?
Arrive early, stay late?
Friendly?
Does above and beyond the call of duty?
Makes the company money?
Loyal?

Honestly, all arrogance and bitchiness aside, I am one of the most loyal people in my company. I've affected every part of the company- from HR and staff training to saving money and PR.

I made the company $40k without trying last month, and here's what I got in return:
- My bonus was deferred without notice or explanation;
- Being told that I am not a team player;
- Being told that I have poor follow through;

So here's what happens effective immediately:
- I work 8 hour days with 1 being GONE for lunch;
- I mind my fuckin business. If there's a spill; oh well. Phone cheaper with Verizon; tuff tit!

I ain't doing a muthafuckin thing extra!

Screw em. For so long I've been a part of that world. From now on they're a part of MY world!

I don't need this shit!

There's a culture of delay, no and poor communication in the company, and the onus CANNOT be on me to resolve it.

I think so many people go to jobs afraid to make waves because they don't want to get fired. Well when you have other revenue streams, you can say "fuck the job!"

I'm 30, I'm me, and I sure as hell don't need to be anywhere I am not appreciated- home, relationship, and sure as hell not work.

With that said, yes, I am on the market looking for a new place were I'll be appreciated.

In the words of Ash, Butterfly out.
