AYRT

honestly assess yourself... ARE you managing your workload competently? Are you leaving early or taking extra long lunch breaks or something? Are you normally quite punctual?

I think so. I finish all my usual ongoing tasks on time, and anytime there's any new one-time type of project, I always finish it earlier than she asks. She constantly praises my performance and says how she doesn't know what she'd do without me. I'm never late...whatever time she asks me to be there, I'm almost always there 5-10 minutes earlier than that because I allow plenty of travel time and traffic is almost never as bad as I'm anticipating. Our lunch breaks vary depending on what's going on that day, and the time we leave does as well. I can't think of a single time I've ever asked for extra time at lunch (or been late getting back) or to leave early. In fact, there have been multiple times at the end of the day where we were almost done and she said I could leave, but I wanted to stay until everything was finished.

I definitely don't want to look for another job. I really enjoy the job itself and most of the people and the pay is signficantly higher than average for this field in this area. And she's fine most of the time (although a bit weird). I mainly just wanted to vent. Thanks though. :)

If you finish all your tasks on time/do projects needed/etc...why do you just sit around and twiddle your thumbs when you come in early?

I mean...why are you not working on projects you already have?

I mean, the could get done earlier, but they probably won't be let go earlier.

I am not the AYRT.

I had a boss who would pull this to try to get unpaid overtime out of their employees. If I was clocked in and getting paid I was working.

If I had been dragged out of bed early for an "important mandatory meeting", my butt was either going home, or chilling in the break room until my actual workday started.

Presumably anon doesn't have ongoing projects they can be working on before the boss gets there to give out the day's assignments, or they wouldn't be sitting there twiddling their thumbs.

It's not actually that uncommon in some lines of work to be given the bulk of your workload on a day-to-day basis.

First thing in the morning there's generally not anything to do yet. The previous day's tasks are finished the previous day, so unless there's an especially large project (which only happens a few times a year, and when it does, I'll absolutely work on it when I'm asked to come in early) there's not anything to do. My day to day tasks are pretty much always the same, but they depend on other people doing specific things first. So until Joe does X or Carol does Y, there's not anything for me to do.
