Increasing desired salary ask?

I'd like to report him, but it is complicated because she is my supervisor, and he hasn't been outright abusive to me. And technically, she probably shouldn't have shown the messages he sent her to me. I've voiced to her that it's absolutely not okay and not normal for someone to treat her like that, but she is convinced it's "just how it is" with faculty (despite him being the only one who treats her like this and to this extent). I'm sure the way to navigate this will be different depending on what universities you work at, but does anyone have experience with this kind of situation? I find it extremely demoralizing, and it's incredibly hard to focus on my job having to deal with him and the way he treats my supervisor. Any advice or recommendations are appreciated!

Hi all, I was seeing if there was anyone on this platform who has had experience of an appeal process with an employer and Unemployment before that can offer a quick chat or or share advise/suggestions a part from getting all my paperwork together. Details: -Resigned due to toxic environment -Tried my luck with UI and got approved -Employer is now appealing I am nervous and I absolutely suck at advocating for myself and really could use a helping hand. If you are open please let me know if I can send a message to you directly. ANY HELP would be much appreciated.

Hi FGB Community, My employer, like many, lost several talented folks during the pandemic. Getting their replacements up to speed during the remote-work time has been challenging. My supervisor has been dangling the promotion carrot for the last year or so and they’ve been candid that I’m already performing at that level. I would agree. I know these things take time and it’s frustrating but par-for-the-course. Now into the current challenge/opportunity. My supervisor has stepped up, leaving the position between myself and them vacant. I’ve been clear that I do not want that position, for job satisfaction and personal reasons. That position is one step above the promised-promotion. I want an outsider to come in because I think that would be best for dismantling some entrenched patterns. But we’re constantly onboarding new staff, and I find myself covering some of the responsibilities of that 2-up position due to leadership vacuum and my own tendencies to not tolerate dysfunction. Recently, my supervisor began dumping further tasks on my plate, and I said “Listen, you can’t keep doing this. I’m already burnt out. Please come up with a plan that involves developing more skills in some of the under-engaged or newly hired staff.” Their response was tired/cranky/retaliatory and in the vein of “Listen, we’re all in the sh*t, get in here with me”. Wasn't their best moment. They made their own choice to step up. I’m uncompensated for the work I’m already doing. So, any advice/thoughts on whom to involve if this gets worse or how to hold boundaries? I’m a little wary of my organization’s HR solely based on some of the outdated or disorganized trainings we webinar in to. I do belong to a union but have never considered trying to find an omansbud. At present we’re onboarding new staff without the position of their supervisor filled, so several people are covering it partially, and I anticipate a bumpy several months.

This is making me rethink this position. I have over 36 years of administrative experience with the last several years at executive level. I have my bachelor’s degree in business administration and accounting. I want to do something else, but find that people who say let’s talk or say they’ll help don’t keep their word. I learned a while ago that I have to advocate for myself and my goals. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt when others don’t come thru. If I want to shift to contract analyst or acquisitions, is there anyone here that can provide suggestions on what I need to do to get exposure?

I have been out of work since the beginning of July. I have never been without a job for longer than a month and that was very early on in my career. I know to tailor my resume to each application but I feel like I am not getting through the ATS like I should. I am reaching out to people via LinkedIn who work at the companies and still nothing. I am so discouraged and I don't see how this will get any better with the projected job market for 2024. What else can I do?
