Well, yes, but not because I don't have enough work to do...it's just that the work I have is mind-numbingly, soul-suckingly boring and tedious.  And there's too much of it for one person, but not enough for two, so I'm feeling overwhelmed to boot.  

As our staff has grown, I've lost the creative input and decision-making influence I used to have.  My job has de-volved into data management.  I used to be more out and about in the organization, serving as my boss' representative since there was just the two of us, and doing more writing and designing, but now I'm chained to my desk with mountains of data entry and creating report after report after report....  I mean, I'm a "systems" person up to a point -- but this is getting to a point where it's just a drag.  

Oh, and that promotion and raise I was promised six months ago after yet another fabulous glowing review?  Hasn't happened.  It's supposedly still "in the works" but I've about given up on it.  

At this point, I'm here solely for the medical benefits.
