Friday reflection – “one stop shop” – 9/5/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m super busy with plenty to do and little time. I have an audit that just popped up in the middle of closing a 20million dollar project and opening the next 26million dollar project. It’s insane the administrative burden that comes behind this. I have other projects that are…

Fishing for information – 9/4/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. There is not a big deal going on about the missing budget (blog 9/2/25 & 9/3/25). What can they say or do now since the person that worked on it is no longer with the organization and the Sr. Mgr is at home with her newborn and cannot ask.…

Don’t quit – 9/3/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I can’t believe it I was asked not to quit? Why? I’m not sure what gave them the idea, but I did comment, “I haven’t seen anything like this before in my career.” The MD “LAU” as I call her looked defeated and gave in on the in-fighting happening…

A worker’s influence – 9/2/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Despite being super busy everyone was needing my time today via email, Teams, text, and phone. Today was also our big meeting with the sponsor on our new budgets for the next 2 years. I tried my best to provide the guidance and support to all. It was a…

Friday reflection – week of endings and competition – 8/29/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I wish I had my own system in place to make decisions ahead of time and then be able to audit my own decisions and go through my list of things to take care of each week. Unfortunately I don’t because I am overwhelmed with follow through and executing…

The adjustment period coming to an end – 8/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. My adjustment period is about to come to an end, it was a huge test for me. It felt more like a punishment to me. I asked myself so many times how did I deserve this? I did learn something and that is what not do. I survived even…

Not a fan about the operation – 8/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. People are mad, short-tempered, and getting in each other’s nerves. You would think the operations team knew what their role is and nothing was overlooked since the departure of their supervisor to deliver her first child. The team mouth off at how they should be paid more, but haven’t…

No one remembers – 8/26/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Now I know many don’t know their job. It’s scary. I have been receiving emails back to back and the senders need direction. It’s funny that I didn’t get any information from “so many.” Today that group of “so many” needs my help. All this started a couple weeks…

Taking the reigns – 8/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. They don’t know yet that slowly I will begin taking the reign, it’s urgent. If they notice okay, but no one is saying anything and doing nothing about it. No one wants to take the lead or responsibility of responding as an organization to the sponsor. Here we go…

When is it my turn to advance? – 8/21/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I don’t know what it’s going to take to get these people to understand this project ends in 7 business days. If not for me sending an email blasts expenses wouldn’t have been coming through for my approval. The expenses were charged in June, July 2025 and they are…
