I've been doing the same job role now for about 6 years, both in different hospitals of the same trust, and in a particular department.
When I started the job role (given to me through reorganisation, not a choice), I found I liked it and took to it pretty quickly, loved the people I worked with, so I was devastated when that dept shut down.
Within a fortnight, I was asked to do the same job but in another hospital within the trust.
Despite it being further away from home, again I took to it pretty quickly even though they do things a different way, but the same outcome) because I still liked the job. I've been here 2 and a half years.
Up until recently, the managers of the dept and colleagues, seemed to like me, and the way I work. I keep up with everything, doing things as and when, not leaving things to the last minute, starting early to keep in front ( busy dept, would snowball if I got behind), and my attendance/ time keeping is exemplary.
A few weeks ago, I flipped. Started crying when I saw what I'd been given to do for the day. The workload his increased dramatically (for all of us, to be fair), and I questioned how long this was to be for.
Things changed quickly after this.
Suddenly, after leaving me alone to carry on with my work (we know you get the work done, we know we can leave you to your own devices), their words, it isn't good enough anymore.
I had to ask the same question twice (double checking) for clarity over a change in a rule that was implemented, and was accused of picking fault. I always double check, always have done. They were happy then, as it meant the job was done correctly.
Also, the manager is now asking me to do jobs she normally does, i.e. sending emails to other depts. What with the extra workload I have just been given and there is only me doing that job role, I am now expected to do that. I tried to say that's not what I normally do, but I'm too scared to say something in case I look like I'm moaning.
I'm tired. Not getting any younger.
I can't get my head around how attitudes have changed towards me since questioning the sudden increased workload.
Wish I hadn't said anything.
Perspective needed please, sorry for the long post.
