I've been in a job for a year now, I feel like I'm good at it and get good feedback. This is the exception, as most jobs I've had before, I've felt out of my depth and found stressful and ultimately left prematurely. I've never been promoted in my life, and only had one job before this where I felt I was doing a good job and got pay rises etc.
So this job definitely felt different. I can do it well, make efficiency improvements etc that are well received, super reliable, hard working, friendly etc
When I interviewed, progression and pay rises were mentioned, and this week, I had a meeting with boss and was kind of hoping for some good feedback, offer of permanent role and possibly even pay rise.
But no, instead I've essentially got a demotion and I'll now only be doing the one bit of the job I don't like (because I'm apparantly really good at it), no mention of payrise, and contract extended for a few months rather than perm.
I'm completely gutted. I just feel like a massive failure and keep bursting into tears.
