Another Day in Corporate Hell/Another Day Closer to Freedom

I despise that I feel compelled to vent my anger, frustration & disgust with my "job" in corporate hell at this discriminatory company by blogging about it. Let me tell you...as a woman you are treated appallingly in corporate America. I can speak to this considering I have been working for a private corporation for the past almost 10 years.

It is a disgrace how women are treated. Regardless of their education and qualifications. I can literally run circles around the majority of men at this company intelligence wise. However I am treated like a peon, while the "white" men are given promotion after promotion. This company employs less than a handful of non-whites and they are treated just as unfairly as the women. Worse actually. It is truly disgusting.

I am sure you are thinking why am I still working at this God forsaken company. Well, unfortunately there are several reasons for that. I am a single woman that lives in an area where decent paying jobs are few and far between, especially in this economy. I come from a working poor family that suffers from serious substance abuse problems and therefore cannot depend on them for any financial or emotional support. Like most Americans my options are extremely limited with respect to working for a company.

I am in the process of starting my own business. I do believe this is the answer to the daily hell I've been living in the last 10 years. Though it could take several years before I am in the financial position to walk away from this demeaning job once and for all.

It's extremely difficult to suffer the daily disrespect of one's so called "bosses" and so called "colleagues". It makes one understand why some lose it. To watch on a daily basis how unfair some are treated is unbearable.
