I hope everyone is doing okay. This department is getting to be more drama than work. You don’t even know what you’re being dragged into until it is explained to you. I don’t keep up with any drama but my own and it’s related to work only. I don’t have time for anyone else’s. Yesterday’s call from my boss was cleared up with today’s encounter with a co-worker I’ll call “Shia.”

It is really too much, one person can create so much drama. I am too busy and the only people that have helped me through the budget overspent ordeal is the program ladies which came unexpectedly despite that this doctor is really upset over the whole thing. She gets after me, but I know she doesn’t put blame on me. Most don’t want to do the work so they ignore the emails in hope others will pick up the task. I take over tasks just because it’s not the person’s fault that the internal culture is of a mentality “not my job.”

Back to the drama that surrounds me. I don’t entertain it, but somehow my name got dropped. “Shia” calls me because her name and mine were dragged into “Pei’s” temper tantrum to the manager. “Pei” wants to forcefully include me and explains why over one week ago she tried to convince me to join her charade. “No ma’am” I responded despite that I understood her concerns I would not join her because I had no complaints about anyone. “That’s not my battle,” I thought and moved on. She and I don’t know each other that way and I would not support it.

Pei and Shia as I’ll call them work together in a small group, but our jobs are similar so I support them both and Shia is the only one that does help me. Pei has not been getting along with my boss and attempted to get me to jump on her bandwagon of complaints and even though I understood her I wasn’t there to listen or corroborate her story. She took that as support to complain up to the senior manager. Shia was also included and we were hot. I will not support something I didn’t agree to. Because we get along doesn’t mean I support your cause or mindset. I didn’t need this now and I hope the senior manger doesn’t ask me about it. I’ll tell the truth about Pei only creating drama.

I have bigger problems and don’t need to be involved in anyone’s personal drama with my boss. Now I will stay away to protect my energy, name, and reputation. All the Best!
