need advise about my job

It might be a complex situation, sorry i never get stuck in such situation. but i have some opinions, u can think about it. Try ur best to deal with your work perfectly,don't care about your boss's complain. Boss always think about himself. PLS don't complain too much with your colleague.When people change their thoughts about, you can quit and find another good job. Even you quit, I think most of people will think you are the best one in office.

I can't promise you that this is the best answer in the world but as far as I know, before you can probably work effectively and efficiently, you must first have a plan. That plan is ideally based on your objective for the day, week and month, etc. By accomplishing your objective, you will then achieve you GOAL. It will be very difficult for you to even come out with a plan if in the first place, you don't have a sense of direction since your job description is not clear. Here's what you can probably do: 1. Set clear expectations. Ask your boss what he expects from you so that you can also let him know what you expect from him and what you expect from the company.(Unclear job description exposes you to endless multitasks and gives your boss the freedom to assign anything to you.) 2.Your company's organizational structure must be very clear. 3.Encourage communication. New policies, concerns,memos,updates,etc. must be constantly communicated to everybody.(If your company has a handbook on Company work rules and regulations, you ask for a copy). 4.Set clear and specific goals and objectives you that you will be properly directed in your work.(This will be your standard. Ask your boss also if he has prepared his standard for you to work on.) 5.Have a daily workplan. 6.Align your daily plan or tasks to your objectives. 7.Execute your plan well. 8.At the end of the day, try to evaluate your output by comparing it to your boss's standard. You need to do this so that you will know whether you are doing your job effectively and so that you will know your competency. 9. Ask your boss to evaluate or rate you periodically. If he discovers some flaws in your job, then for GOD's Sake that is his job in the first place to coach and train you so that you will improve your competency. 10. Nothing can motivate you more than a good appraisal and a good constructive feedback from your boss. 11. Nothing is more satisfying or fulfilling than in knowing that you accomplished your plan effectively in a day. Good luck. Don't resign yet. Just do 120% in your current job because if you look for another job, you will still deliver 120% of effort because you will again want to prove to your new employer that you can do the job effectively.

im so sorry hear about your job, so many bosses out there that do this to their employees, i think you need to talk to the other employees and get their insight on things, then keep trying to sit down with your boss and talk through your problems, i would also advise you, start looking for another job as things at times get dirty in workplaces and then you dont want to be unemployeed.

Plum,It's simply sounds like a management skill. A new skill that you may need to learn and impliment.Read books on how to delegate to others and how to motivate people. Learning how to manage others is a skill that is learned just like typing or mechanics or cooking.

I do not envy the job situation you are in. Your boss is either a very disorganized person, or he is highly dependent on you. I believe the latter is more the case. This can be good or bad, depending on how you look at it. It is good in the sense that you are more highly regarded over other employees, and so he delegates more responsibility to you. That can make you more important and valuable, and that can translate to more increments or promotion over time. But it is bad when he keeps things to between him and you, and the other employees are out of the picture. They may think you are trying to gain favour with your boss when you are given more jobs or your boss discloses things only to you and not the others. It may sow jealousy among your peers and colleagues, and affect your relationship with them. Since you said your boss never defines your job description, any work can be passed on to you. As a result, you may end up being overworked while others are not. I think it is best under the circumstances to speak to your boss about your concerns, and ask that he defines things more clearly to you as well as your colleagues as far as job responsibilities in the office is concerned.

it might be annoyed when u meet this condition.it is complicated.always,we think workplace is a polictial place full of fight and stuggle.of course,it can't be read clearly.but u can feel it. we call it "wars without smoke". u should be careful. be smart and sensitive,do sth before you think carefully.try to talk to you colleagues,let them know u conditions.and get some help from u boss.

First I can tell you I have been in this situation, exactly like what you described here! I had to quit the job after all troubles that had happened for me. No one was responsible for those troubles except me. My boss blamed me, but my staff did not hate me and I really hate my boss. He is so smart, he put all the problems for me. Everything is bad that is my responsibility, all tasks were successful complete that was his working. He never explain clearly about the tasks, he let's me assume. If i complete the task, it was his ideas. If not, it was my faults. So for your advise, you are better make clear every tasks with your boss and your staffs like: - What is it? - How to do it? - Who do it? - When is the date line? - How is the report? who will report to whom? If your boss promises you something, you have to chase him until you get what you want or until he complete his promise. Hope my tips can help you!
