    Starting Over – Episode 4 – Should I go?

    I don’t even know where to begin for this week. A dead end…I guess. I should just quit or should I not? I’m still trying to figure out where I fit in the grand scheme of things at this “not so new” job. My head is spinning, and I am at the frustration point. The…

    Unbelievable But Worth the Experience to the Next – Episode 3 – How I Found Out I Won this Chess Game!

    I’m going to try and finish this post today because there’s quite a bit to write on this person who not only gave me a difficult time at work, pushed me which helped to grow thick skin. Because of him I am no longer afraid of what is coming next, not to take BS from…

    Starting Over – Episode 3 -Can Someone Tell Me What I Should Do.

    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.

    Not the End-Change of Plans! My Worst Nightmare Job – Episode 2 – Worst Interview I’ve Ever Had!

    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…

    Had Enough-Prepared Me for the Trusting the Unknown – Episode 3 – Personality Clashes!

    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.

    Unbelievable But Worth the Experience to the Next – Episode 2 – Bad Hire

    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…

    Starting Over – Episode 2 – How Do I Learn?

    This week was sort of a blur. On Tuesday it was the beginning of training and sort of a blur because it was all talk and did not understand much of what was being said. It was done with very good intentions, and I understand the speeches but not the procedures. There are a lot…

    Had Enough-Prepared me for Trusting the Unknown – Episode 2 – What?! Not A People Person? HUH?

    What a week, it just seems like this past week was a tiring blur? Tuesday was hurtful because my boss doesn’t (seems like), can’t or won’t allow me to be flexible. There is something that I can’t pin-point. I know there’s friction and I feel isolated from the group.

    Starting Over – Episode 1 – A New Start

    Day 1 – November 29th, 2021 – With an open mind and open heart. The ladies received me and were detailed. It was almost as if I was taking a breath again. I met a young lady that also started with me and went to lunch together. She was telling me about her experience with…

    Not the End-Change of Plans! My Worst Nightmare Job – Episode 1 – My Biggest Mistake

    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…
