Friday reflection – adjusting and making progress – 3/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. After a pressing and time sensitive week along with a difficult person I am making some progress. I am meeting small targets, but it comes with long hours. I’m okay at learning and understanding my projects. My hands are involved in quite a bit. I’m working through it. Not…

Too slow and on the same topic, again – 2/3/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I feel a little stuck. A report that I submitted to the sponsor came back with discrepancies and I’ve already been working on the finance variance for a couple days. I hope tomorrow is the last day that I have to work on it. We cannot stay on the…

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 scolding micromanager appears – 10/28/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. It certainly was an interesting day, but I was able to get through it. I didn’t take anything as bad intention, but certainly watching out and shows how we should at times just pick up the phone or do a face to face call to clear things up. We…

The idea that I’m going to get paid or promoted – 10/15/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I took a couple days off and after some thought I’m not going to get paid or promoted staying here even though the supervisor has told me twice. Send me an email, hurry, where is it? Nothing has happened, but trust and having good relationships with others at work…

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…

The cold shoulder for a cold person – 9/25/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Lately, it hasn’t failed for the supervisor to subtly assert herself toward me or feel uncomfortable around me. What is going on? I’m too busy to deal with her. She has tried to assert herself as the boss but doesn’t have her facts straight. She tried to “show me”…

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,…

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…
