Demoted without being demoted.. what next??
Anyways, my current position was supposed to be a Network Administrator, which is the main reason I applied for the job in the first place (I've done support for about two years now, maybe a little more, and want to move up in IT). Anyways I'm STILL basically just doing helpdesk support work. I don't even have permissions to half the things I should as an admin. TO make matters worse I'm expected to move furniture and if necessary run errands for the other people in the company (the old "It's a small company, we help each other out" routine). I even was reprimanded for refusing to run out and get a bag of chips so the company could entertain some guests and told that if I didn't want to do those things if asked, I should look for another job.
TO make matters even WORSE, my title is now being changed from Network Administrator to Systems Support something-or-other. My salary isn't being changed, but I feel like this is a total demotion; I would not have even applied for the job if I knew it was going to basically be tech support, but I wasn't even told THAT until after I was hired. I've only been with this job a little over a month and already I'm starting to get burnt out with almost every other day being asked to move a desk or a file cabinet for someone and expected to immediatly do it as if it was my actual position.
What should I do??
