I work in a drug and alcohol rehab and I have been here for 3 years. It is a non profit organization and it is?

Question by hottie phat girl: I work in a drug and alcohol rehab and I have been here for 3 years. It is a non profit organization and it is?
ran very poorly in my opinion. My title is triage. My boss has recently added a bunch of new jobs to my work load… none of which are in mt job description. My question is this I am considering quitting because it is getting to be too much for me. How would I go about talking to her before I make such a drastic decision? What could I say to make her understand that I am burnt out and my load is too much for me??? Any help much appreciated.

Should you decide to quit do so after you’ve found another job.

If you’d rather try and salvage this situation then by all means talk to your boss. If she is a reasonable person she can perhaps redistribute these new duties to others or accept that somethings won’t get done in a timely manner if at all.

We all get burned out is a given and taking time off is a reasonable and necessary by-product of work.

Granted that things are getting tougher for non-profits, but finding reliable and experienced people is even harder. You bring value to your organization. Sometimes bosses are too buried and forget this.

Good luck.
