Work Woes

This will be the first of many entries on this subject. I work for a prominent tech company as a contracted worker. I have been here for close to 4 years now and my journey has been difficult at best. Unfortunately, it isn't the work that is the difficult part. I have found ways to be considered a go to person within the company and have taken extra courses to get certified in project management and lean six sigma.

My issues are with 1 person above me. In the time that I have been here, he has made multiple slick comments that he would later have to retract. He has shown favoritism multiple times towards a friend of his to promote him over me, but have me train his friend.

It has now taken a more personal turn. This man has now told lies to my regional that could lead to me losing my job if they really wanted to push it. The only thing I have going for me right now is my regional doesn't believe it because they have not been able to provide any substance to their allegations.

Hello,

He sounds very unprofessional,

I am sorry you have to deal with favoritism in your career.

It is evident you are a hard worker, and I'm glad that the accusations weren't believed.💛💫

I really sympathize that you are in such a situation and are forced to compete in unequal conditions. Perhaps you should consider moving to another job where you will be appreciated as a specialist and for the way you work, and not for being someone's friend. If you need a good letter of recommendation writing service , I can recommend you a service that I used myself
