Incoming reinforcements – 11/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The “corner” as I call the higher ups all sit in one section which is the corner of the floor, away from all the chaos with their doors shut is what I call them. The click that consists of 4-6 that really don’t have the experience to hold their…

Today is that day – 11/10/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I RESIGNED today. I did shed tears I’m not going to lie. It bothers me a lot it had to get this far. I chose it, told my truth, and it’s documented. They lied about me in the worst way. Their lies were so bad in the end they…

Signs of a toxic job? – 11/04/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems gossip rules around here and I try to stay far from it. Today “PEI” as I call her attended a conference to train on research topics. “PEI’s” colleague and a great co-worker to me resigned her position last month. She resigned because both “PEI” and “DD” the…

Observing the crowd – 11/01/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I made the decision to resign. I have to write the resignation letter and send it. I will take this week to draft my letter and think about how to write it to make my point and not go into so much detail. The type of manipulative behavior and…

My work is only good – 10/30/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. So I didn’t notice a late email on Tuesday night the boss sent me to stop by the administrator’s office and talk to him about my performance evaluation before I added a rebuttal to my response of the performance. I am not upset because I had a hunch, but…

The bad news – 10/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I pray often and have faith that God leads me in the right direction and to allow me to make the best decisions at work because I really don’t have a lot of support. I’m single-handedly operating on my own. There is not any other experience of project management…

Friday reflection – standards and expectations – 10/17/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The communication is lacking and has been since I got there majority due to the way the department is structured. The training lacks, the people are not the right person for the role, and the expectorations and standards are not high for anyone. I come from having been trained…

Dealing with high emotions – 10/15/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. ✅ Today was running with high emotions from others. Everyone is so hot headed today and even had my first argument with the payroll lady. Although not shocking I am proud I held back from being harsh, but I was also honest, logical, without emotion, but WOW 🤯! People…

More of them and not many of us – 10/14/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am at a loss and it’s not just me. I’m fed up and disappointed ☹️ with the many directions I’m being pulled. This department should be gutted and transformed. Others are now complaining to me of the non-response and not made progress in their tasks and need help…

Friday reflection – ignore the critics – 10/10/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m growing, learning, and demonstrating to myself I can. I was going through this weird couple days of non-action, procrastination, and avoidance. It was too involved in my emotions. I felt drained and ready to give up. I couldn’t get my mind and work right. Today, I came out…
