Yeah, according to these definitions, you are being harassed. However, unless it is sexual in nature, or you are being discriminated against because you belong to a protected group, there's no reason why you can't be, or no action you can take. MOST people are worked hard at work.

If you don't like your job, you can ask your supervisor if someone can help you. Your other option is to find another job. Working at a job you hate can make you crazy, but someone else might love your job.

I feel sorry for you, but you might need to complain to your boss, go on strike, or quit.

ahhhhhhhhhh resign?

no sorry its not harrassment- though some of the work your doing May not be outlined in your work contract. Check that. It seems like their using you- and your getting walked on by other employees, stand up for yourself and go to your boss and explain you feel the workload isnt evenly distributed amoungst the employees.

Unfortunately, when your boss knows that you are good at what you do, you will always be "elected" by him/her to do tasks. Have you tried to speak with him in a diplomatic way? Let him know that you don't mind doing your job, but don't feel that it is right that you are having to pull everybody Else's weight as well.

find a new job!!! then and only then walk quietly away leaving them to figure out for themselves why.

Unless you know for a fact they want to fire you don't do anything hasty. They MIGHT be seeing if you can handle responsibility for upper position. If you do know they are trying to fire you, which would be rare to know, are they overstaffed, that's a good indication of someone going, and if you show them you are a hard worker and can do all that why would they fire you. That wouldn't make sense. But if you do know for a fact that they want you gone, I still wouldn't quit just don't give it all you have, give 75% you still will get paid the same for doing 100%. But like I typed before that's only if you KNOW they want you gone. Keep in mind why would they get rid of a hard worker? I hope that helped a little.

The only reason this is happening is because you are letting it happen. Some of your co-workers have been doing this longer than you have been alive. And lets face it most people only have a job for a paycheck, so the least amount of work they can get away with the better for them. So as long as you do the work, why should they. You see what I'm saying. You aren't giving 100% you are giving 110%, and not even realizing it. You could go to a supervisor and complain. But then no one would like you, especially the ones who are the problem, and dont do their work. I understand your compasion, taking care of people is a rewarding and fullfilling job. I know I did it for 11 years as an RN, that just means you get a CNA to do it, they are experts at bedpan duties. Because in a hospital, general not a home, thats how it works. Most CNA'S cant give shots etc, thats what RNs are for. And there are other nurse like positions in a hospital LVN LPN et. RNP, a whole slew of positions. But if you are so unhappy, quit, or talk to a supervisor. Other wise it will take your joy away, and who are they to take your joy away. As for your administrator, you lose. She has the right to treat you any way she feels fit, except physically hurt you. My best advise is to keep going to work, while looking for another job, and then quit without notice! Thats the only way you can hurt her and not hurt yourself, and I would not list her as a contact. Use someone above you, like a floor or section manager and while you are doing this kiss her butt big time so she gives you a glowing reference, if she ask you if you are quitting tell her no, just window shopping. Tell your future employer after you get the job, before she calls your references, about how you were treated at the old job. And that you feel you must move on, due to unbearable conditions. A fair days pay for a fair days work. Try it you may be happy after all, just not there. God Bless and good luck.
