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 set up – 11/13/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was called into the supervisor’s office at 11am today. I took 11/12/24 off to clear my head. I didn’t know what the meeting would be about. My thought was that we would re-group and try to resolve Monday’s situation. She asked where I was with my tasks and…

Friday reflection – the feisty lady crosses the line – 11/01/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. She won’t stop being feisty. She’s not supporting anyone, volunteering at department events, won’t do any favors for others. I guess she wants to be paid and not do anything? She voluntarily took on completing a program report for an investigator, a role I specifically asked if she was…

More work and difficult people – 10/31/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. “What you put out you will get back.” I’m trying to ignore the situation, but it is backfiring on me. The cat lady continues to be mean and continues to affect my friend and I. She feels safe and comfortable criticizing the rest of us. She defends herself even…

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…

Friday reflection – the old is still new – 10/18/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I work with women that think their old school mentality and view of working is the new way to handle us younger people. One is angry (cat lady), always on the defensive, and wants to be negative about everything even though things go great. She thinks everyone is out…

Fighting the potential turbulence – 10/10/24
I hope everyone is dong okay. It’s coming, I see it coming already. It’s been gradually building up and there is turbulence that is on my mind. I feel it coming with the turbulence is the rift. I’m trying to hold back and drown it out. I’m being observant of the movements and holding back…

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,…

Beating the competition? – 9/26/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I didn’t know that someone was competing with me for the last few days and I didn’t even have to compete and it came to light during a meeting today and it didn’t sit well with the supervisor. I started the day in a bad mood almost immediately because…
