YoungHeart1980!

I hope everyone is doing okay.

I wanted to write on this topic separate from my Friday reflection because it’s important for me to get off my chest and let go of my thoughts and am really shocked at how people don’t follow up or confirm things around here that has led to so much confusion and duplicate work. As I have mentioned in my blogs this is my way of letting go.

I ask a lot of questions and sometimes people feel uncomfortable that I do, some might not like me for it, but at least I’m able to justify the reasons why I do what I do or if I ever depart whoever come in behind me will understand my decisions. This past week the young lady who I’ll keep the name as “young lady” and she is with a position that is considered pretty high for such a young age. As I was walking out of the bathroom I ran into her and in passing just happen to get into the conversation of what I’m experiencing and the challenges I’m facing. I talked about not knowing how the situation of overspending could’ve happened. “An executive decision was made collectively (4 people who have supervisor role) to move forward with creating a certain number of new accounts to be moved into the new system.” They missed moving several critical accounts that were supposed to be rolled into the new system. The old and new accounts are now affecting my work and threw my numbers off and recently found a third set that was never captured either. Insane what has happened. The budget was completely off due to the first action. There were expenses in the old accounts that are not being covered by a budget which should’ve continued to the new accounts.

I have questioned why and who – how did it happen? I was about to let this go and not let it bother me any longer because I was stuck trying to figure it all out and have to move on, doesn’t serve me to know. “It was us, 4 of us who made the decision.” They had to review hundreds of accounts. This was the first time I had some sort of answer in weeks. I can’t and won’t judge and/or criticize and I have to be fair.

I am seeing a bit of results working through this mess and taking one step at a time, being careful and hope everything works out for me. I believe I’m moving in the right direction, and I think they now see this might be serious. I am certainly learning a huge lesson, not sure about them. My only hope is to bring open communication and transparency. I’m committed to see this project through, God willing. All the Best!
