Thanks, people. I've sent out an e-mail to friends and family asking for help. I know when I first got annoyed by the reorg, I wasn't too happy with what was out on the job sites, but hopefully things have improved in the last few months.
The thing that sucks most is I like working there. It's just the new CIO and his policies (this shift change is in reaction to them. Someone currently works the shift I am being assigned, but doesn't have much in the way of technical knowledge, and they want 24/7 coverage with knowledgable people, so she is apparently getting moved elsewhere or out the door. The information is still sketchy at the moment.) that are fucking everything up. I really don't want to leave, but once this shift change takes effect, I may as well be working for a different place anyway considering the complete change of time and location.
Do you at least get a shift differential?
Nothing was mentioned. My boss mumbled something about seeing if I could get reimbursed for mileage next week, but that's it. I was trying to get more information, but he said he couldn't tell me anything more until next week (though I was welcome to call him tomorrow to see if that had changed.) It sounds like there was an eidict from the CIO of "Make X happen by next week" and left it up to him to work out the details. My boss doesn't seem particularly happy about this either.
