ignorance is bliss

It makes me sick when people at work claim this to be true. I requested to be transferred from being everyone's bitch to being able to walk around and help/tutor. Of course, that still did not prevent the record keeper from using me as her bitch. There's a little memo saying that I should help the record keeper with her job until the quarterly reports are over. I was told that I would not be able to work "overtime" (of course, we're still paid the same rate even though we're working overtime), and that she gets overtime. So what incentive is there to help her? And if I get the job done twice as fast as she does, but get paid more than twice as less, shouldn't they reconsider her salary? But alas, I never understood the way economics and efficiency worked in practice.
Some of the past employees (who have quit by now) have complained that being the record keeper's bitch is not part of the job description. We were hired to tutor/help students. The "supervisor" has fixed that. Basically, our job description is to do what they tell us to do.
I guess I'm still holding on to this job as a safety net. Nevertheless, it is not going to take much to piss me off again and make me want to quit.
