Sense of dread...

Seems like there's an impending sense of dread surrounding work lately. I've never been the most positive person when it comes to, well, most anything, but this is different. It's almost like being on the verge of losing consciousness while a vulture circles overhead. It just feels like something is about to happen, and that it's not going to be good for most of the people it effects. It's almost as if those running the show (the vultures) are doing their best to try to get the department at large to leave of their own accord so that they don't have to come up with bogus reasons to fire us. They make it pretty obvious that they don't trust us, even though we give them no reason not to. They do their best to create division between certain groups in the department, incorporating a tier-based "caste" system (despite their statements to the contrary) and incorporate "improvements" that manage to accomplish nothing other than complicating once-simple tasks. Probably the most frustrating thing to me is that they apparently never say what they mean, nor mean what they say. They just sit back plotting and scheming, not taking into account that we're doing a hell of a job considering the size and growth of the organization, or that what they're dealing with are the livelihoods of human beings. I'm not really sure what to do, I'm just tired of thinking about it.
