Thanks everyone! I'm a little nervous about tomorrow, but there's another thing I really need to talk to my boss about and I think this might be a good opportunity. I think it's unfair that I'm doing way more than my fair share of work just because the other drafter is lazy. I call myself the only drafter now because he never does anything. I really want to mention to my boss that I'm beginning to feel overwhelmed with my workload and I would appreciate some help from someone else or even to have someone to turn to so I can ask questions about my work instead of feeling so stressed out alone. They way my supervisor ("the other drafter") yells and swears in the office and talks about my co-workers and makes sexist comments really really bothers me. I'm not sure how much of that I can bring up though. For sure I think I should mention the unfair workload, and maybe even tell him to take a look for himself in the drafting book I've been keeping for record. My 60+ projects compared to my supervisor's 3.
On the plus side, one of our biggest engineers in the main office called me today for some work. He greeted me with, "Lindsey! Clifton's new senior draftsperson in Saskatchewan!" wow! My supervisor is more "senior" than me, but I think everyone in the whole company knows he doesn't do work. So, "senior draftsperson" for the whole province really isn't bad for just graduating 11 months ago
