Well, today my boss told me that I need to do my invoices differently. Yes, I did them just the way she told me to, but, in her defense, she is just figuring this out as she goes, and she didn't know what was required either.
I can't just turn in hours worked; I have to identify projects and how much time was spent on each. That's okay going forward, but I don't know how I'm going to catch up on what I've already done. I went back and forth among the profiles I was working on, and really have no clear idea of how much time I spent on each. Another problem -- quite a bit of my time was spent learning the procedures and troubleshooting problems with my computer and the remote connection. I hope they aren't going to say I don't get paid for that time! And what about meetings, and training? Is that a project?
I know they have a need for me to show accountability, but the truth is I've been extremely reliable and circumspect; they just don't realize it. They are also urging me to finish profiles more quickly so they won't "cost" as much -- well, that's not how I work. I do thorough research and work hard to be accurate and produce a quality product. I don't do fast and slapdash. Everyone pays for that, in the long run. I may not be the right fit for this organization. We'll see how it goes.
I have to go back tomorrow because there is a training session/meeting. I hope I get paid for it! What am I saying, I haven't been paid for anything (she said peevishly).
Anyway, I'm really tired. I'm going to have a glass of wine and go to bed early!
