No one wants to talk to you – 2/4/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I don’t like to be mean and I took the time to explain to the Sr. Manager the update on my projects. She tells me no one wants to talk to her and she was wondering why. I, of course, lied and told her I wasn’t sure. It’s not…

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…

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…

Like it or not – 1/21/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Busy times working on dealing with last weeks news of no budgets and having to find cost savings to deal with the shortfall of year one for 3 programs. The forecast submitted by the lead person, “DD” as I call him was shorted and now we have no funds…

Friday reflection – who I have to work with – 12/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m getting behind on my entries, but I am going to try my best. Life happens, but I still journal my days and it’s just getting crazier. How do these things happen and how do people get through and away with things. HUH!! 😳 This morning was starting as…

Is the sacrifice even worth it? – 12/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Wow! My day was going okay, busy, working a lot, but quiet. I was on a roll completing tasks. Then came the finance meeting and I noticed the MD coming on to the meeting already upset, careless, and rude by her comments. I was surprised because I thought the…

Who are you? – 12/10/25
I hope you are doing okay. It’s difficult to read or believe someone when the person has been a challenge for almost a year and now the same person is trying to be nice. What’s up? There is a reason under that change of attitude. You don’t know who they truly are. I don’t trust…

Cry for help – 12/03/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Oh my god! I have never in my career experienced someone in distress, not my co-workers. My co-worker is a pretty young guy in his 20’s, but not sure. What I do know is that he’s nowhere near my age. He could be my son. He has picked up…

Not interested – 11/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. This place is pretty bad and being nice hasn’t worked. I’m not exaggerating when I make the statement. Leadership is non-existent, the inexperience is a lot worse than what I thought. People are not interested in learning, but want someone else to do the job for them. They don’t…

Friday reflection – grateful & healthy – 11/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am grateful at the end of this week because I do see I have support and I acknowledge the value I bring. I do this for me and the important work that is still to be done in the support of mental health. I’m not one to give…
