Do you ever just get to the point where you feel so unappreciated for all that you do that you just don't want to do anymore?

I'm right at the middle of that point right now. It didn't bother me that I don't get fair compensation. I love the job, I enjoy what I'm doing. But sometimes I feel like I deserve more than this. That's why I'm not as enthusiastic with my work as I used to be because I feel like I should be giving them what's worth of what they're paying me.

i totally relate to what you are saying. My boss always tells me how great i am and that she doesn't know what she would do with out me and that i do the job of what normally would take three people to do yet they aren't really willing to pay me any more than what im already making so i basically have to sneak in overtime to get extra money. I keep telling her i need extra money and that i would really like a raise but i have a meeting set up with her next week and im going to do a presentation as to why i should get a raise im hoping for 50 cents that would help me out a lot

I think we have all been there at one time or another.I know I have been many times.There's really nothing you can do about it,just take some quiet time to yourself,shake it aff and start all over again......that's what I do.....Just like my Avatar says....."I've gotta learn to relax!"

Frequently - I'm there right now. :-) It's not so much work, but a voluntary role I undertake, and over the last few days there's been a series of stupid issues that have been blown up out of all proportion and that people just won't let lie. So I've just sent an email to all the people involved saying 'Sort this out or fire me, don't care which, I have my life to lead' and I feel much better. I genuinely don't care less either way right now. :-( It is a really bad feeling; I like to think of myself as conscientious but sometimes it just piles up on you and that's that, as they say. I'll await the return emails....
