Re^2: Disapointed at work

[monsieur_champs]

Dear maetrics

If you feel that its unfair for them to show you off as a capable person who can do the job, then choose another company who will undervalue your worth.

You're right. Unfortunatelly, you missed a single point, that is not obvious, as you're not inserted into the brazilian software building market: we're suffering from (yet another) employment crisis here. There are just a few opportunities for qualified folks. I can't just throw a job away and look for another. I'm looking for another job for an year, now. I feel exploited, and don't like this. But I need to pay my bills, and eat, and study, and wear clothes. My current employer knows that there is few jobs available, and is not worried if I get out.

What I suggest is that you work on your negoitation skills a bit more. You sound like you're looking for a reason to leave your company(...)

Oh, hum... well, actually, I'm looking for a diplomatic solution. I'm trying not to leave this company, as I negotiated a good amount for compensation, taking into consideration my role here. I would love if there are more job offers outside there, so I could just talk gently to my boss. Sure he would listen to me if there are more job offers than qualified professionals.
