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…

Sharing wisdom to those who want it – 5/25/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Today and any day that my expertise is needed I’ll share even to the person that thinks her trickery is funny. I choose to ignore the trickster and continue to share my wisdom as kindness and rise above the pettiness that I faced earlier in the morning of 5/23/24…

Friday reflection, mixed emotions – 4/26/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s been a very tough, emotional week. Without releasing personal details I got terrible news of my older sister who is sick and I can only pray for her to go into remission. On another note, I feel like I’ve been on a treadmill and haven’t been able to…

The very thing that could’ve hurt, didn’t – 4/16/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I immediately made the decision to let go of this conversation. It didn’t stress me. I did get my “hand slapped”, but for a situation that I didn’t pick either or was involved from the beginning. The investigator commented, “ya’ll are negligent” and invoices never get out on time”,…

Now that I can, I can’t – 2/19/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I appreciate the thought of a farewell lunch. I received an email from the Director today asking to take me lunch before I separate from this organization. The only day she has available is tomorrow, Tuesday 2/20/24 and there was no other time available for her. This week is…
