Friday reflection – sharing through differences – 5/1/26
Hope everyone is doing okay. Today was eerily quiet at work. I guess they are all tired of having debates with me. I’m used to the chaos and busy work. Not sure if others are off today or it’s the weather since it’s been raining non-stop for almost 24hours straight. I had a couple tasks…

Transparency – 4/29/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. MD “LAU” and Director 1 have been going back and forth with me via email which is not productive when you have a lot of ground to cover. I asked for a meeting, they refuse and I am forced to respond via email. My emails get missed or ignored…

Tough day – 4/16/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. Tough day today for sure. My job is busier than ever. One of my siblings is going through a tough situation, nothing he can’t handle, but he’s pushing through. His wife left him and tried to see him torn, both financially and mentally. He’s a strong person and he…

The showdown in my favor? – 4/14/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was expecting a showdown between myself and the “corner” over “PEI” sharing with others to come to me for any financial help despite I am not assigned to her projects. “PEI” is fully aware which projects I work on and it’s not hers. Her boss “DD” fully supports…

Bad work ethic – 4/09/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m not part of the click and they don’t care for me. I just found out today, it’s not that they don’t like me they are used to covering up for each other. We’re not friends and I don’t work like them. At times I’m isolated when I disagree…

Budget deadline nearing – 3/31/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. The laptop charging cord crapped out on me and it had nothing to do with my USB connections and HDMI cables to extend the display monitors. I found one lying around and I had to improvise of keeping the laptop in one specific spot to charge and be able…

Friday reflection – work divided – 3/27/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. This week it’s shown who’s really working and who’s not by how well you’re prepared. This was an all out debate. We know where the mistakes were made that caused finger pointing. 🫵 it’s not good to do it, but I can understand the circumstances and why. How was…

Job insecurity – 3/26/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was caught off guard today and my mouth let loose. I had enough of being scolded, reprimanded indirectly, and taken advantage of. While most deny to help I’m saying yes. I’m constantly showing up for others. No one is coming to save me either, but yet I’m giving…

Was I reprimanded? And she’s MIA – 3/18/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was having a good morning getting my day organized and chatting via teams with Director 2 answering questions regarding her budgets. Then she began to explain to me that she had an awkward conversation with MD “LAU,” “I was given a directive that I am not the head…

Temper tantrum – 3/3/26
I hope everyone is doing okay. We had a meeting today with the administrator discussing the administrative fees and were not aligned across the projects. We will be audited by the sponsor so we have to get it right. We have to do our due diligence. Of course there goes the Sr. Manager talking about…
