Week has been getting better and better (promotion, sort of)
I’ve been here a year this past November. I took this job as ‘Insurance Assistant’ which was a step way down from being a Senior Claim Representative. I took the job because they will pay for me to go back to college and most importantly they were offering me $4,000 more to do a job that is 1000 times less stressful!
I have no college degree and my last job wouldn’t allow me to get a Brokers License (claims people don’t need one). I do however have three profession designations.
So today I get a call “Got a minute” from the boss. I walk in and she says. “The department heads have recognized that you and Karen (my coworker) no longer fit into the typical Insurance Assistant title, therefore your title has been changed. You are now a Client Representative Level 1”
I’m so happy!
It used to be a rubbing point that I do all the work of our brokers without any recognition or title. I mainly didn’t complain cause if you’ve ever done Claims for 3 years you KNOW it could be worse. But we’ve always had an issue with being called “Assistant” in such a way that associated a lower level personnel when we run accounts independently without supervision.
I still do the same job, just with a title now that I is more appropriate.
LOL I love this.
I was hired under a condition … NO PROMOTIONS FOR TWO YEARS! My job history shows a record of being an “overachiever” It was a big no no “we hired you to do this job and would not like to see you leave it for at least 3 years, if possible.”
Oops!
