I hope everyone is doing okay. As a reminder from Sunday to pray for all, I did so today before I started my work day. Most days I don’t understand people, but I intercede where necessary because I do have facts and feel as if people are working against this team and department or they really are not aware. It’s not everyone, but I do speak up and out for those who work around me that should know better and those who supposedly have the credentials to do the job, but don’t.
I hit that frustration point, it’s not the work, it’s people. The central offices are trying to make me work more than necessary. What’s their purpose though, they just copy my work and keep it as their own. They were part of the problem that created the high deficit by not supporting in keeping track of expenses. I research, investigate, and tell them to fix it and instead they come back and ask what I have already previously responded to?! It makes us look dumb. C’on!
Then I have DD, not sure what’s up with him. He forgets things, but also has hundreds of unopened emails. Scary! He is counterproductive. He won’t ask me before he responds to emails and my accounting entry was closed and forced me to start over. Maybe he’s got too much going on and it’s not worth being upset and confront him if he doesn’t recall that we had to open a new account because his team didn’t catch the account wasn’t coded appropriately and set up incorrectly, hence the reason for my accounting entry to correct the expenses to the newly created account with the correct codes of funding.
The program team continues to spend on the deficit account. They don’t learn?! Then they wonder why budgets are overspent. They ignore the warnings, the directive, and sponsor’s instruction.
Finally, DD and Pei, DD’s staff person didn’t guide one of doctor’s correctly. I’m sitting there correcting them and they ignore me. I end up telling the doctor I’ll catch up with her at a later time. She spent her time building a budget when she shouldn’t have to or required to submit.
I’m tired, have so much to do and little time. I’m ready to take a much needed break otherwise this job will zap my energy. I am ready to be present for my family, disconnect, and have fun. We see the problem people and they should go away instead it will be the quality people that will end up being the ones to go away and that’s several of us. All the Best!
