Day 1 @ D.C. – 5/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I traveled with the hubby to Washington, D.C. and will be here for the rest of the week. It’s good for me to get away from the work environment and settle my mind a bit. This medical doctor whom I’ll call BLW who doesn’t seem to think I can…

Friday reflection – the temper tantrum that caused drama – 5/2/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. This department is getting to be more drama than work. You don’t even know what you’re being dragged into until it is explained to you. I don’t keep up with any drama but my own and it’s related to work only. I don’t have time for anyone else’s. Yesterday’s…

Was a good day until the call came – 5/1/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I worked through quite a bit of tasks that I was behind on. A lot of housekeeping and clearing up travel and credit card expense reports, and upcoming finance review for a medical doctor. He’s pretty cool with dry humor. This particular doctor who I will call SE only…

Got an ear full today – 4/22/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have been absent for a little bit because I took some time off to go on vacation to the beach and my family and I had a blast. I’m really behind on my blog and I couldn’t wait to get back and continue writing about the ongoing drama…

Intelligently sarcastic – 4/18/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have responded to several emails in a sarcastic mood because they think I have this indispensable amount of time and energy. The mentality of “give it to the new person.” I don’t want to inflict hurt or be ugly to anyone even though there is an urge to…

Friday reflection – Getting wild on me for no reason – 4/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I like my job; it wouldn’t be interesting if not going through what I am at the moment. The storm will turn into light rain, but I have to put up a fight for now. I have to be grateful for the job because others are losing theirs as…

Friday reflection – shaking and moving – 4/4/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It was a relief and a good Friday. With preparation, even though I had many road blocks I didn’t stop. Today was silent and I took one win of many problems we are having. After being stuck in confusion for a while, knocking on doors, seeking input at different…

The room is silent – 4/3/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. As I blogged yesterday, I discovered our agreement with the sponsor that began back in 2022 was being spent on the appropriate scope of work. The problem happened that during a change in the agreement came the budget increased for programs and decreased for others. No notification was sent…

Ready to rumble? – 4/2/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The medical doctor (MD) is upset, rightfully so because the lack of communication and a missed opportunity to provide input to the budgets, negotiate, and provide more information to increase the budget and be able to complete the work. I don’t know what happened or who did not pay…

No need to show your ego – 3/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Why? Why instead of answering my question he tells me how great he is? He’s been doing this a long time, very well versed in our finance system SAP. He was tasked to train me. My co-worker who I’ll call AM really goes out of his way to pump…
