    Damn that really sucks. I’m sorry you aren’t appreciated for your skills and have to take on the role of teacher instead of doing your actual work.

      I end up doing both and then management sees a gap in my time entries where I was helping someone, and they come down on me for not doing enough.

      It’s as if, if I’m not doing billable tasks, then I’m lazy and I’m not working… Because y’know, I show up to work and just fuck around all day unless I’m being watched constantly by management.

        Yo I totally get that time entry shit. I get automatic hate mail from my boss if I don’t hit 6 hrs of billable time. There’s a lot of unbillable duties I do in my position, so a lot of days I don’t hit my 6 and it’s annoying as fuck.

        My boss is also a passive aggressive pos that I could rant about all day.

          I get hate mail if my total time entered is less than 9 whole assed hours.

          They want to know when I take a shit for fucks sake. What are they going to do, reprimand me if I take 20 minutes to take a dump?

          “What were you doing that entire time?”

          “Taking a shit”

          “It doesn’t take 20 minutes to take a shit”

          “Maybe for you”

            Bro 9 hour workdays sound like hell. And the fact they want to know if you’re taking a shit is disgusting. I’m so sorry you have a job like that. I hope you’re able to get out of there.
