Friday reflection – grateful & healthy – 11/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am grateful at the end of this week because I do see I have support and I acknowledge the value I bring. I do this for me and the important work that is still to be done in the support of mental health. I’m not one to give…

Advocating for myself – 11/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. In this place you are on your own. If something isn’t working out for you then it’s tough luck. The mantra should be “You are on your own if you want to work here.” People are hesitant to support. I probably only have had about five people at one…

Incoming reinforcements – 11/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The “corner” as I call the higher ups all sit in one section which is the corner of the floor, away from all the chaos with their doors shut is what I call them. The click that consists of 4-6 that really don’t have the experience to hold their…

Today is that day – 11/10/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I RESIGNED today. I did shed tears I’m not going to lie. It bothers me a lot it had to get this far. I chose it, told my truth, and it’s documented. They lied about me in the worst way. Their lies were so bad in the end they…

Signs of a toxic job? – 11/04/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems gossip rules around here and I try to stay far from it. Today “PEI” as I call her attended a conference to train on research topics. “PEI’s” colleague and a great co-worker to me resigned her position last month. She resigned because both “PEI” and “DD” the…

Observing the crowd – 11/01/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I made the decision to resign. I have to write the resignation letter and send it. I will take this week to draft my letter and think about how to write it to make my point and not go into so much detail. The type of manipulative behavior and…

Friday reflection – the outcome – 10/31/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s difficult for me to see what next steps to take next. I commented a rebuttal in my evaluation I was advised that my rating is 3.6/5 and I disagree with it and I don’t see it at the top of my evaluation, but I accept the outcome of…

My work is only good – 10/30/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. So I didn’t notice a late email on Tuesday night the boss sent me to stop by the administrator’s office and talk to him about my performance evaluation before I added a rebuttal to my response of the performance. I am not upset because I had a hunch, but…
