Surrounded by the same struggles – 2/17/25

I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems things run slow here. It takes quite a bit of energy to get tasks completed. It seems like I will have to plan, adapt, and be patient. Working silently helps to get through very detailed tasks, the many moving parts. I’m slowing breaking barriers.

I’m seeing breakthroughs during the middle of the night when I’m asleep I suddenly wake up with ideas that come to me and I have to write them down so I won’t forget. It’s been happening since last week Thursday. It brings me clarity. I think to myself how come I didn’t think of this before?

I was chatting with a couple ladies and we seem to share a lot of things in common. We understand each other and each other’s struggles at work. Our experiences have changed us throughout time. The three of us are around the same age. We felt that we’ve been stuck at jobs with no promotion or raises, paid little for the work we do, and not able to promote and overlooked even though we were the right fit, but not friends with the hiring manager. We have been treated less than and overworked. Our raises were the same despite we worked a lot more and others did the minimum. People have been mean to us and now we found each other where we’re supportive, stable, and assure each other as we continue to work as a team.

I’m glad these ladies are my co-workers. All the Best!

  1. It’s so good to have friends in the workplace. Though work feels frustrating, the camaraderie around lights up the day.
