Let me be happy – 3/23/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m still fairly new to this organization. I’m nearing month #3 on 3/31/25. I feel that I have to prove my knowledge, experience, and may be the reason I feel so much pressure. There is a lot of work to be done, situations to resolve. I work hard to…

In denial – 3/13/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I got chewed out by a program manager for the issues that occurred in her part of the project. She tried to make me feel small and incompetent. She was very emotional and upset. I presented facts, didn’t make anything up, but despite that she continued a very stubborn…

Friday reflection – courage to not give up – 2/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Sometimes my mind turns to doubt. I try to tame this part of me and I haven’t been able to. My mind takes over and I get nervous when I start something new and don’t have feedback. They must assume I know it all and I don’t. I had…

Surrounded by the same struggles – 2/17/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems things run slow here. It takes quite a bit of energy to get tasks completed. It seems like I will have to plan, adapt, and be patient. Working silently helps to get through very detailed tasks, the many moving parts. I’m slowing breaking barriers. I’m seeing breakthroughs…

Done here – 11/14/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I don’t kiss anyone’s rear, never have, never will. I don’t boost anyone’s ego, and I don’t rely on anyone’s approval, only God. I’m not a follower, and I earned everything I’ve done. I learned that my value is a lot greater than what was being reciprocated here and…

The set up – 11/13/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was called into the supervisor’s office at 11am today. I took 11/12/24 off to clear my head. I didn’t know what the meeting would be about. My thought was that we would re-group and try to resolve Monday’s situation. She asked where I was with my tasks and…

Friday reflection – the winds of change – 11/08/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I volunteered to assist my friend with an event today. Although it’s not my job and don’t have a lot of time, it’s my friend I won’t say no. We’ve been through good and bad times at work, and I will go out of my way for her. I…

Some people have no shame – 11/05/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Some people are really clueless and think they can get one more thing over me, again. I don’t agree with what happened yesterday. The supervisor’s inaction and her statements undervaluing my contributions to this department brought me to the decision to quit. A supervisor is supposed to be impartial…

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…
