We're currently going through an organisational restructure at work and there will be lots of changes. In addition to that I've been having a huge heap of trouble with the start of the menopause - forgetfulness, feeling overwhelmed, finding it hard to prioritise, procrastinating because I don't know where to start etc. I had a difficult conversation with my boss where I was told that the standard of my work had slipped. I'd just started HRT and it's only just starting to kick in, but it was really upsetting to be told this when I've always been a bloody good PA. She's been in post less than a year and is radically different from my previous boss so I've struggled to adapt the way I work a bit but I thought I was getting there.
Today I had a random conversation with our head of HR who twisted the conversation round to ask how long I'd been in the role, what my dream job was, and did I not fancy going somewhere with a bit more job satisfaction. I told her that I was actually in my dream job, but she kept pushing, and saying this job satisfaction stuff.
I may be paranoid but I can't help feeling that I might be pushed out of my job as part of this restructure. I've already lost some nice bits of my job to another PA who came back from mat leave with no job who wanted to do part time - her boss left and wasn't replaced. My job title is exec assistant but all I do is diary, travel, expenses, when I used to do more projects that I could get my teeth into.
I feel that I should have someone on my side should the worst come to the worst. We don't have any kind of union at our place - can I join a union independently and if so, which one? I work in a not for profit organisation.
