Like it or not – 1/21/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Busy times working on dealing with last weeks news of no budgets and having to find cost savings to deal with the shortfall of year one for 3 programs. The forecast submitted by the lead person, “DD” as I call him was shorted and now we have no funds…

Friday reflection – who I have to work with – 12/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m getting behind on my entries, but I am going to try my best. Life happens, but I still journal my days and it’s just getting crazier. How do these things happen and how do people get through and away with things. HUH!! 😳 This morning was starting as…

Is the sacrifice even worth it? – 12/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Wow! My day was going okay, busy, working a lot, but quiet. I was on a roll completing tasks. Then came the finance meeting and I noticed the MD coming on to the meeting already upset, careless, and rude by her comments. I was surprised because I thought the…

Who are you? – 12/10/25
I hope you are doing okay. It’s difficult to read or believe someone when the person has been a challenge for almost a year and now the same person is trying to be nice. What’s up? There is a reason under that change of attitude. You don’t know who they truly are. I don’t trust…

Cry for help – 12/03/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Oh my god! I have never in my career experienced someone in distress, not my co-workers. My co-worker is a pretty young guy in his 20’s, but not sure. What I do know is that he’s nowhere near my age. He could be my son. He has picked up…

Not interested – 11/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. This place is pretty bad and being nice hasn’t worked. I’m not exaggerating when I make the statement. Leadership is non-existent, the inexperience is a lot worse than what I thought. People are not interested in learning, but want someone else to do the job for them. They don’t…

Friday reflection – grateful & healthy – 11/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am grateful at the end of this week because I do see I have support and I acknowledge the value I bring. I do this for me and the important work that is still to be done in the support of mental health. I’m not one to give…

Advocating for myself – 11/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. In this place you are on your own. If something isn’t working out for you then it’s tough luck. The mantra should be “You are on your own if you want to work here.” People are hesitant to support. I probably only have had about five people at one…

Another bailout – 11/06/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am forcing myself to work. A lot to get done. After last week I can’t dedicate the same energy, less passion to my work. No one knows or understands because it’s not them in my shoes. it’s an awful feeling that you put everything of yourself into your…

Facing more bad news – 10/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I started working at 8:20am this morning. Had a little late start to my work day. I took my time and took a deep breath and prayer before I got my day started. I feel I’m in a nightmare, this really happens at work and to me. I question…
