One of the larger companies account managers needs to be away for 2 weeks.

So guess what's happening? Either me or my feckless co worker will have to do his job while he's away.

If I get given this, and no pay raise, then I'm bailing asap.

Love when someone else's leave becomes your problem. A couple years back my old boss went galivanting around Europe for 2 months and most of her work fell onto me, it was hell.

When i went on leave for a week for my birthday last year nobody was asked to take over.

I'm still catching up and that was in November.

That's what usually happens to me too, if I'm not here everything just piles up.

I'm away for 2 and a half weeks in April. Pray for Mojo.
