My job is normally enraging and it's hitting new all-time highs.

When I was hired I was given clear, high level direction, knew what we were trying to accomplish and shit got done.

Over the last few years the direction has disappeared and now it's vague hand waiving and being told to create strategy.

I'm not a director, I don't make director money, I don't get stock benefits or any shit like that. I'm an office flunky and I am exhausted. The people making 4 times what I make are staring at me and asking what do we do next.

I don't have a fucking clue and you don't pay enough to go find one. If you want that level work, start ponying up either more money or better benefits. Hell, work from home would get you further than just torturing us all with in office bullshit and no resources or help while constantly understaffed.
