Say It to My Face.

I have never felt this under-appreciated before.  I'm actually quite offended.  I wish I could write about actual details, but with my job and the clientele I work with: confidentiality and all that!

I work my ass off for my job and I work especially hard to ensure that I'm fulfilling everything that's within my job description.  To hear from my direct supervisor that a parent has called one of the higher-ups to say that I did nothing grinds my gears.  I deal with getting slapped, kicked, spit on, and pushed around; after two and a half hours of that, I am exhausted and quite often close to tears.  I am working so damn hard to make sure my clients are progressing at an appropriate rate, so to hear that I'm being perceived as doing nothing and that I'm not working in such a way to curve certain behaviors is a huge kick in the face.

The work I do and am responsible for is only effective if everyone is on board and using similar strategies.  Thank you very much, but I am not the one doing nothing.

I am so irritated right now.  I am so damn close to the end of my rope.
