ikyrianI think my boss is trying to get rid of me. Subtly and yet not at the same time. I know I'm a paranoid little cuss, but hear me out.
I got a call the other day that was so out of the blue that I do believe it came from Never Never Land. I didn't get it until today because I don't check my work messages everyday the way I should, mostly because the calls I usually get are from people wanting money from the company. This was not one of those calls.
It was from a headhunter and she wanted to speak with me about positions in the area...in the financial sector. Well that's all well and good, but...I haven't updated my resume in OVER A YEAR. There is NOTHING on my current resume to suggest that I have ANY financial background whatsoever (except for in the "she can handle a cash register and balance it" kind of way), mostly because my current job is not on my resume.
Also, because my current job is not on my resume, how the hell did she get my phone number? She said that I "had come highly recommended". Recommended by who? She's not the first headhunter to call me on my work phone. HOW are they getting my number? Who is giving it to them and why?
And it's not like these messages are generic. They say my name, they give details off my resume, etc. So they've at least looked at my resume and they know who they're calling. Now, admittedly, this person said that I would be good with financial stuff and yeah, I can run payroll and I'm good at balancing accounts and using Quickbooks and Excel but it's not like I have a degree in accounting.
My one year anniversary with my company is this Friday. It would really suck to learn that M. has been trying to push me out the door these past few weeks. But it would explain a lot.
