Temper tantrum – 3/3/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. We had a meeting today with the administrator discussing the administrative fees and were not aligned across the projects. We will be audited by the sponsor so we have to get it right. We have to do our due diligence. Of course there goes the Sr. Manager talking about…

Shutting us down – 3/2/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. For weeks Director 1 has been going back and forth between the MD and myself. She will normally come to me and ask questions that only I am able to answer. Truly she relies on me instead of actually caring to make notes or keep track. She goes back…

Friday reflection – real work and then the others – 2/27/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. My work tasks were stalled in several areas. One the budgets. I have to explain and answer the same questions over and over. What’s going on why aren’t they paying attention. The central offices which I’m already not sure what their real function is has not answered or processed…

Friday reflection – burn out – 2/20/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am worried, fighting hard, and trying to persevere. I don’t know how long this will continue. I have to find a way to step back, but I get pulled right back in because there’s so much reliance on me and creates a lot of work. I get lost…

You cause more work than necessary – 2/18/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. She’s mad because I’m winning. Director 1 has been here with this department since 2019 and has not been able to get it. She’s attempted to try and make me lose it in front of her boss MD “LAU.” I have a feeling it’s her who wants to make…

Almost ended my day on a high note – 2/12/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Wow! People just can’t let me have a good day. I got to the point of my day almost being over on a good note and it’s as if they know and they want to ruin it. I have put in a lot of effort, being positive, and prepping…

Called in to explain the issue – 2/2/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I received an email with the subject line, “what is the issue?” The administrator was asking what the issue is because MD “LAU” as I call her went to the head and boss of our whole department. I knew it was coming it was a matter of time, but…

These are not mistakes, it’s bad leaders – 1/27/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Once again I’m going to have put out a lot of time into the next big deficit. I feel like I’ve been on the losing end since I got hired here. People don’t understand the high stakes. And the people that have made the errors over and over again…

Friday reflection – pressure on me again? – 1/23/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. What a stressful week. Boy was I getting it from every direction. What the heck is wrong with people? Had another tough week, busy, and my problem task went smooth yesterday, it worked out. And today was no exception, here we go again. The administrator tried to stress me…

Going with the flow despite the unknown – 1/15/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m being stretched thin. If anyone watched gumby back in the day (90’s) that’s me today. Everyone needs something from me and it hasn’t stopped since the beginning of the year, two weeks ago. I’m still in my element with more confidence each day that passes. I gladly take…
