Friday reflection – clean slate & decision time – 8/25/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m writing my Friday reflection on Sunday because I know how I was feeling but couldn’t put it into writing yet. This past week made me realize I have to reassess. I am glad I did get some clarity. I am happy people are speaking highly of me though.…

The bad news – 8/22/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have to take the bad with the bad and the good with the good. I somehow already saw it coming and knew the answer. Her body language said it all (8/14/24 blog). I understand why the supervisor’s face looked overwhelmed. I thought my meeting with her was about…

Breaking the barrier? – 8/21/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. After one begins to join meetings and entangle themselves in something they haven’t seen or done before now it becomes overwhelming. You now see the gravity of what you have to what all I have to deal with. I see the demeanor changing, reality forces you to do an…

Investigator #2 drama 8/13/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have faith in what I’m doing, believe in myself and my quality of work. Investigator #2 as I’ll call her is nasty with her words and her sarcasm isn’t funny. She’s passive-aggressive and the most difficult type of person to deal with. She doesn’t bother me and I’m…

Friday reflection – one problem ends, another starts 8/2/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s never ending, geez! I haven’t been able to call it a day for the last month. People are either ignoring my emails, not paying attention, and some plainly just don’t like me because I am not catering to them. I got slammed today. Investigator #2 is plainly upset…

Having Faith in everything – 7/29/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Today was a strange day for me because I really don’t blog many good days when it comes to work. It was a good day though. I didn’t get push back on a particular challenging task and surprisingly passed the approval process. She took the time to see the…

Friday reflection – The root of the problem – 6/14/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. The new start seemed to be working on getting to know each other. I sit here now wondering when did it stop working? I have been working with others, taking advice, support, and guidance from everyone outside my department. I am working independently, they don’t share my likes about…

To be or not to be? – 6/13/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. My job just got busier. I take my time to be sure that I produce quality, but I feel the pressure to rush, and it makes me nervous and might miss something, get it rejected, and will cause delays finishing by the deadline. I try to be a perfectionist…

Friday reflection – looking for simplicity – 6/5/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Why do things have to be so difficult? They could be so simple only if people would do, respond, collaborate, and share? I grew in my career with people who were willing to train and take the time to help. That’s not seen today. There’s only a few that…

Stagnant work is lifted or not? – 6/4/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. My prayers at 2am worked. I prayed and hoped for the best today before I got to work. I met with the investigator today with a naive state of mind. I explained my goals and asked each question and was patient. He gave me a simple, “no.” I will…
