tanaiseOkay, well, that went well enough, I think.
She doesn't know. But she'll try and find out why.
And I just checked my time sheets, and I've been doing this work since before April 1st of 2000. Which is the cut off point, as that's how they measured years, basically--from review period to review period. so it means I have two years experience at this position, even if I didn't officially have this position. And I really should point out that penalizing people who come in to the company through an AA position is not a good idea. It tends to breed bitterness in their hearts and all. And it treats me as though I'm rising from a void. Which is one thing if I'm coming in off the street, but I'm not. I had 9 months experience talking to people. 9 months experience working out what the projects were, who ran them, who they reported to, what they did. This is not a void, this is a very solid basis for a good job farther down the line. I didn't love my job towards the end, but I have never denied that it was a very valuable job. And to say that I can't move up because I haven't been in this exact position for 2 years just dismisses it completely. Poof! 9 months of my life disappear. I was severly underpaid, did more than my share of work, and now I'm to be penalized because of that? It really doesn't seem fair, does it?
but it's out of my hands for the time being. I'll talk to her later, hopefully I won't have to pull out the above arguments, but if I do, at least I'll know where they all are.
