Friday reflection – the feisty lady crosses the line – 11/01/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. She won’t stop being feisty. She’s not supporting anyone, volunteering at department events, won’t do any favors for others. I guess she wants to be paid and not do anything? She voluntarily took on completing a program report for an investigator, a role I specifically asked if she was…

Being resilient thru this storm – 10/24/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. When I have bad thoughts I do focus to clear my mind. I have incorporated music at work now from my younger days. I found myself dancing and moving to the beat of the music. I stand up at work to burn some calories now. I still meditate, turn…

The performance review – 10/18/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have not written my experience with performance reviews in my industry. In my opinion, these are of no use. It keeps a record of something that you show up despite you work or not. It serves no purpose because year after year my form is marked as “exceeds…

Re-align or start over? – 10/14-15/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I took a couple days off to reset completely of mind, body, and heart. I want to let go and start over. Sometimes from the worst of our experience something better might come along? I sit here thinking how many times over the years I have been behind investigators…

Friday reflection – patient rage – 10/11/24
I hope everything is okay. Here they go again with their subtle games and envy energy. It’s as if one of the two is taunting me via email. Is it the mean girls season or what? Either way the cat lady (co-worker) wants to outshine us as a team and the fact that she really…

And it just went insane, but not really – 10/09/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I can’t believe what people react to and what they think stress is. People live in a bubble. Their version of reality is different from mine. I do have to laugh as they seem to believe the stress they feel is like the end of the world. The life…

Why is it important who’s right? – 10/01/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. As a leader you should be able to manage disagreements, hear both sides of one story, not tell us who’s right. Why do you take sides? Part of being a leader is to be intelligent to find solutions to issues, not to put blame unless someone steals, loses money,…

What sets us apart – 9/24/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have come to understand what sets us apart. My communication and passion I bring to this job. I thought that she was taking care of this task. I inherited the corporate card expense reports beginning this month. It all has come crashing down on her. I come out…

The work life I live – 9/23/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I wonder why someone would be jealous of my work life? She obviously doesn’t know much about me, my struggles, my setbacks, and challenges. Just because I make it look easy on the outside doesn’t mean it is for me. Why does it give her satisfaction that I’m struggling…

Ready to give it a go – 9/18/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am no longer liking commuting in. The thought of my drive came to me today, should I stay or should I go? And then investigator #2 happens and it brings confirmation of my thought. Investigator #2 is on the attack again. I’ve made a decision to walk away…
