Not feeling appreciated at work?

I have been in my current job for 3 months. I work for a sub-prime lender... a furniture supplier, we do hire purchase without credit checking people. The clientele are low income earners, benefit recipients and bad credit risks.

I work in the debt department and you can imagine how challenging the role will be with the types of customers I have described. They have loads of reasons why they cannot make their payment for the week and then they fall into arrears. Alof of customers just come in, get as much furniture as they can and then do a runner. The sales department need to hit their targets and are grateful when someone else signs up for goods - get the customer to sign and then no doubt, my department is the one who have to chase and trace the customer.

I have 200 customers to chase a week, whereas other colleagues have 40 customers to deal with. I know the brief details of all my customers and the other colleagues know nothing about their 40 customers.

Some of the managers do not take the calls and the customers tend to complain and the manager takes their side of it...calls are not recorded. I take and make as many calls and I am stuck on calls for other departments.

I had a 90 day review today,I worked over - FOR FREE IN THE 3 MONTHS! Just to prove I was dedicated and good for the job... character-wise at least. But because the debit is not coming down... they say I am not cutting the mustard. It is like getting blood out of a stone.

I just feel so unappreciated.

I am thinking of handing in my notice next week because it is only a weeks notice I have to give, plus, my last pay is a week after handing in the notice. I am debt and mortgage free.

I will not claim benefits either, I will just live on my savings.

What do you think?
