No need for comparison

I am constantly comparing myself to this other person who started the same day as me. I shouldn't be because this person has a lot more education then me, not to mention a certificate. I am devastated at the accelerated pace she is being assigned duties that I imagined myself receiving. Through comments of the team, i gathered that some of the items being assigned to her were originally assigned to me.

The words: imagined, gathered, and although not written - expectation are dangerous words due to the dramatic implications that can occur if I act on these words. I am compelled to stay silent. But my mind keeps running away with jealousy, as it shouldn't be due to:

1) Being a new hire
2) only having entry level experience in my field
3) not having the credentials that all my team members have

These facts are overwhelming to me getting the crap no body wants. I should be thankful that the tasks assigned to me thus far are not as entry level and administrative as my last job. Yet, I keep circling the wagon of jealousy.

Just breath. Just be happy. Count your blessings before someone counts them for you..

I am definitely leaving at 4 today.
