• Analyze why you’re unhappy.
“Look objectively at your own situation to see what the factors are,” says Jewell. “Then talk it over with a friend, colleague or a coach to get their perspective.” Isolating the root cause of job dissatisfaction can take some effort, she acknowledges, but it will pay off in the long term. “Until you understand why you don’t love your job today, you won’t know what to look for in the future.”
• Determine a course of action.
“This involves assessing risks and opportunities, pros and cons,” says Griffin. “Before you challenge the status quo, you have to anticipate the consequences. Ask others for their feedback. Build a Plan A and a Plan B. And this is really important; consider the support system you have to help you.”
• Select and execute a specific strategy.
This might include opening lines of communication with your boss, talking to someone in human resources, finding a mentor or looking for other opportunities in your organization, they say.
• Evaluate and refine your plans.

Women’s Experiences in the Workplace

It can be often said that women and female employees experience more than their share of disrespect and
poor treatment by the agents of society and management. “My job is to manage”. Yet when asked few in these position can explain what this means other than “I am the manager” and similar mantras. When applying what might be considered downright foolish behavior – such as the “we know routine “ or pointing to graphs and charts on the wall where the rules are one sided if not indeed stacked and informing victims that “I am just doing my job”. Similar answers and mentalities could be expected of border guards or policemen / women issuing tickets at a speed trap whose only purpose is that of revenue collection – little else.
It can be best said that if a women does rise to management then their attempts to be firm or forthright
with male employees may be more than difficult. Employers have traditionally paid women less than women as “men have to raise a family”. How that logic and argument does not apply to single parent households where the mother is the provider and wage earner is somewhat elusive.

It seemed that John felt that “he needed a job”. So much for peer and family pressure all meaning well.
However John was having trouble finding a job that paid enough . He had worked in the produce department of a grocery store but had quit because the pay was so low. Desperate he decided to apply for such a position , even though he resented the low wages and no benefits.
Finally he found an actual opening. The grocer offered x amount a week $ to manage the produce section of the supermarket. John agreed. Workers often react and respond to unfair treatment by ripping off the company. In the end neither side benefits to any degree – both are being taken advantage of . No one is ahead at the end of the day. Not the employer who has problems of employee theft and low morale. Not the workers who seldom put in an honest days work , and are best are scheming at how to get more off the shelf goods. So much for good value and proper effective management tactics and procedures.

Perks and More Perks of Management Yet no Responsibility

The latest major business news is a case in point and example of bankruptcy or responsibility and indeed morality of upper or even middle management… On the one hand the privileges and perks of management – and of course the large bonuses awarded to executives , even as they destroy and shut down the productive elements of their organizations is something that is “god given” , their “entitlements”. “I am entitled”.
You may hear the spouting of slogans of “I accept responsibility”. But when it comes to action and acceptance where are these same types. It not unlike the United Nations soldiers who themselves may be charged with abuses, or in Lebanon on not seeing the return of terrorists under their very noses. What are these people in charge of?
What are they being paid for? It’s all the emperors’ clothes with no shortage of “Cannabis” and “Yes Men” in the wings.
Anyone who has been at an airport can tell you that someone is terribly wrong. But where are the F.C.C. and its upper management at all. Ditto that for the financial markets. Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae Stock was going to hell in a hand basket. Turn on a radio or TV set in the last year and all you heard was of the looming crisis and whether for Canadians was it a good time to buy a home in Phoenix or wait for worst to come. Yet no one in upper management or in politics was aware of this. It’s as if they were all just putting in time. How sad.

Family Life of these Social Deviants

It is most interesting to note the family life of these management ? types . That is if they have a family life . It may just be the case that ” a hole in any port “ is the best idea of any relationship to them. It may have been said by your grandmother that ” if they steal from others … they will steal from you.” That is in the same way they treat employees on the job … never ever being able to realize that you get a lot more productivity and in the end result profit with honey and human kindness than with vinegar. In the same way they treat their employees thus follow their interpersonal relationships. Any relationships that they have may be based on raw power and I am the boss. If that fails they may attempt to control other members in their group or family with other measures of power – such as money , and purchasing objects for them or even in extreme cases with allowances and provisions of dangerous drugs such as cocaine or narcotics. The basis rules and procedures are not far off of a how a pimp treats their workers or prostitutes although it may be said in many cases the pimp is a better overall manager and motivator than many managers in the workforce. Pimps may not have such pathological behaviors and forces running their lives.
