The position I'm in at work essentially gives me no authority for much of anything. I'm considered a "temporary" employee and a lot of what I do, I actually shouldn't be doing according to district regulations. For example, all money handling needs to be done under the supervision of a "board approved" employee, of which there are none, and I shouldn't be counting the money from the events and depositing it.
My current boss continues to try to put more responsibilities on me and other employees think I am the one to go to, to make decisions. Part of me wants to just move everything up the chain of command past me. Not for the sake of being lazy, but just kind of saying "hey I still shouldn't be making these decisions, but if you'd like move me into a position that can, I'd be okay with that" Then the other part of me wants to take on all these responsibilities despite not being rewarded for doing so to be an example to everyone around. I have every right to do only a "temporary" employees duties, and nothing more, since anything is beyond my domain.
I may never be recognized for the work I put in here at the college, but as I stick it out and do get these new responsibilities and tasks put before me, I gain experience that I didn't have before. And God is teaching me to be diligent regardless of not being noticed for it, and I think that'll help me when I am in a job where there is the possibility of promotion and having this time to look back on will keep me motivated to glorify Him in my performance at work.
