A new employee coming in and getting your same job done in half the time kind of makes you look bad.

depends on what your job is.
i have a special job. my projects generally take me anywhere from 2 days, to 2 weeks. people are willing to wait weeks for me to work on their projects. yes, there are others out there that can do what i do...but, they always come back to me. and, when others work on said projects, i usually have to fix others' mistakes.
all i am saying is, if you let people walk all over you, they will never stop. believe me, i have been in that position, i used to work 12, 16, 20 hour days..all for basically nothing. you know your value and you should use that to your advantage.
