This is the fourth time that I attempt to write this entry…I was so emotional twice this week due to the lack of inclusiveness. 

I was elated because after so many years of trying to get an interview with this organization I finally got a call for an interview. I was ready to move into a different industry. I made attempts over the past eight years, at least, and it was sort of like a dream come true. I…

Working for this employer was degrading and sad. The organization was going through a system change and while going through the change there was a gap where there was not a system or manual process available to continue processing purchases of supplies or parts. 

I was so worried about the probation evaluation (episode 1), and I didn’t notice that I was taking on a lot of work. For almost two years I kept working and as soon as I was burnt out, I took notice of the work that had been placed on me. The steps behind each task…

I interviewed for a position with two women, and I thought the interview was going okay, very relatable, dry and tense, but okay it was not something that I would worry about and typical of an interview in the past. I thought it was awkward that they didn’t have their cameras on via Teams, but…

I was so proud of myself for starting over. Breathing the air as I walked down the corridor leading to the beautiful grass that continues to bloom during the winter season and amazing Victorian style buildings made me feel good.
