Friday reflection – Strategic beginning and ending – 7/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. People probably don’t care for me because I ask questions because I want to be sure we get this right. We have a new project starting and I shouldn’t ask questions. You only respond to me and not add you. “DD” as I call him tells me it’s the…

What does your title mean? – 7/3/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. People don’t really understand that their decisions are not always the right one. Instead of asking, they create more work for us. On Monday (blog from 7/1/25) it happened and today again of being counterproductive. People don’t see the bigger picture and don’t want me to make my own…

We’re watching it all go down – 6/03/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. There is no peace, no quiet in the office. This is not a team. The new people that started like myself feel like fools for taking this job. There’s no empathy, this department had severe problems. I thought I was the only one, but I’m not. I’m trying to…

I was not heard, lost my voice – 6/02/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The medical doctor didn’t want to hear what I had to say. She was not happy yet again with the result of my last meeting with the sponsor. I gave the sponsor everything they asked and they want to continue the exercise. Forecast after forecast it has gone a…

She’s annoyed by me – 5/21/25
I hope everyone is doing well. She’s back “BLW”, the medical doctor is annoyed with me again no surprise there. This is each time we meet she has to be sarcastic toward me. It’s toward me because I’m the only one working on the finance exercises that the sponsor has assigned to us. The sponsor…

Friday reflection – one step closer, hope for the best – 5/9/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I didn’t have a change to write much this week. I was stressed, felt down, low energy, but continue to pray this situation to end soon. I feel like things only happen to me. It’s just been way too long and giving it everything I’ve got just to be…

Taking a verbal beating – 4/29/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Oh my gosh! I took a beating from the sponsor of our project today. Good thing I kept my mouth shut and didn’t respond to a lot. I just took the punches, but I knew I was right. The sponsor did not accept my report until in front of…

No need to show your ego – 3/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Why? Why instead of answering my question he tells me how great he is? He’s been doing this a long time, very well versed in our finance system SAP. He was tasked to train me. My co-worker who I’ll call AM really goes out of his way to pump…

Friday reflection – the absented help – 3/7/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m stuck. Today was unproductive, felt lost. I got stalled. There is something I’m not seeing and a little stressed out. I didn’t make much progress and I tried to make a call to the person that should know and nothing. It’s difficult to get information out of this…

Seeing days of challenges – 2/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I like the work I do, but the processes are slow moving. I have had quite a few tasks that have cause a challenge for me and putting me behind. I don’t have time to waste, maybe it’s just me. I’ve waited 2 days, maybe I can wait one…
