Grousing about work...

[geminigirl]

I know the budget is very tight at work at this time of year...Imagine happens at the end of the month and that brings in a significant amount of money. And so, things are tight. My last expense report that I submitted wasn't small, either, and I was told to charge it to a different grant that the one that usually covers my expenses.

Thing is, I haven't gotten an expense check in a month. The reports are submitted and approved, but I'm not getting the money. Because this is the time of year when the budget is tightest. I depend on my expense checks to carry me between pay checks. I make so little, salary wise (I'm grossly underpaid for someone with my qualifications, but lets face it, there are only so many jobs doing what I'm doing, and what I'm good at,) that those expense checks are a necessity. I may not see an expense check for a bit either, and it's just stressful to not have that money...it's not a consistent amount, but it's something.

I hate this part.

Bleah, that sucks. I hope they get it straightened out soon!

As the Imagine money starts to come in, and bills start to be caught up, I think checks will be issued. So long as it's not actual pay checks, I suppose it's fine. Just challenging since I sort of count on the expenses.
