Friday reflection – nothing but the truth – 5/15/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I had no choice but to drop truth bombs today. Let them fall where they may. I’m okay with either being fired or walk away. I won’t let anyone lie and pronounce my name in the same sentence. The sponsor sent the budget back for correction and answer some…

Potential shake up – 5/12/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was holding off writing about this topic because I wanted to know how it would play out. It started with the sponsor asking met to meet. She returned the budget almost completely different than what I submitted back on 4/15/26. This budget was previously submitted to support a…

Friday reflection – lost my cool – 4/24/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. What a day! I had 2 situations that I had to deal with that might be difficult to handle for some, but not for me. I am so glad I learned people, reactions, postures, and habits. Patterns are important and knowing how to navigate through the many attitudes is…

The problem employer – 4/22/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. That’s all I have this month is problems, problems, and more problems. It won’t stop. It’s time to take a step back. It’s the only way to relieve stress, the workload, and the problems. It’s this job, this department, this employer. Everything is so difficult and takes forever to…

Expert, not – 4/21/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. So, the Sr. Manager struck me as an HR expert, but to find out that the program teams are the ones that are the real experts and do most of the HR tasks. She’s mostly just pushing paper to our central HR team which is the “real” HR team.…

Bad work ethic – 4/09/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m not part of the click and they don’t care for me. I just found out today, it’s not that they don’t like me they are used to covering up for each other. We’re not friends and I don’t work like them. At times I’m isolated when I disagree…

Difficult conversations – 4/2/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Having difficult conversations has become a regular thing for me. I learned to speak up for myself, but it’s ignored. At least I said it and I can move on. I’m being asked to make decisions and communicate those to the MD’s and certain things that should happen and…

Friday reflection – work divided – 3/27/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. This week it’s shown who’s really working and who’s not by how well you’re prepared. This was an all out debate. We know where the mistakes were made that caused finger pointing. 🫵 it’s not good to do it, but I can understand the circumstances and why. How was…

Job insecurity – 3/26/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was caught off guard today and my mouth let loose. I had enough of being scolded, reprimanded indirectly, and taken advantage of. While most deny to help I’m saying yes. I’m constantly showing up for others. No one is coming to save me either, but yet I’m giving…
