Friday reflection – some feedback – 5/24/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I recall my days as a supervisor. Each time someone stepped into my office there were no surprises and the feedback the staff received was not new. Part of being a leader is to provide feedback and create a protégée so that they can move on and be successful.…

Building a strong foundation or not? – 5/9/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m building steam, faster, wiser, and gaining traction in this position. The knowledge I gained, but the workflow here is completely different from what I had the first time I was hired in this organization. They upgraded their accounting system and processes. I got a comment from my supervisor…

Remain silent – 4/30/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. Working silently is the best way for me to make progress at least for now. I have to maintain my distance to get through this project that the deadline is today at 5pm. I’m not aligned with the current vibe, don’t have the proper support, and the energies are…

Happy through the chaos – 3/12/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m inundated with work, but the support and assistance I get from others is great that I am not even tired of working, I’m going from one task to another. There’s communication and collaboration. I am with a group of people that I can connect with. I’m very busy,…

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…

Friday reflection – from loud noise came the nice view – 1/26/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. I have to admit the kitchen cabinets look great. I loved the cabinet builders ideas and mine. He was nice and patient, captured my vision. In contrast to the contractor hired to bring in all the builders, he doesn’t get me, my vision and doesn’t do his due diligence.…

After time alone – 1/25/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. After taking a day or so alone and able to think a bit, after talking to a friend and not having anything to lose… I applied to a high, executive position. I’m taking that risk to leave behind what has caused so much anxiety and where a working person…

Level up – 1/24/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. I presented financials today for the head of our department, the big boss man. He was pretty good and understood my presentation with not much to ask. All eyes were on me to be at my best. He’s got a lot of work and I give myself a B+…

My thoughts today – 1/17/24

I hope everyone is doing okay today. I took yesterday off (1/16/24) because if I continued to run on high emotions and a short temper I will raise arguments with people and bring things up that I have stock piled the last couple weeks. The only thing I should’ve done is put up boundaries sooner…

Friday reflection – tiring week – 1/12/24

I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m tired of work and I’m tired of looking at my kitchen still torn up with little happening. At work I’m fed up with asking people for updates. After two weeks of asking, nothing has been completed through today. Once again I asked for updates today. I’m terrified going…
