Doesn’t feel like a party – 10/29/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I woke up not wanting to commute to work. I had to because I have committed to help an MD’s assistant to put a birthday party together for her boss. He’s really well liked and popular and I agree. I picked up a couple custom cakes for the party.…

Friday reflection – round and round we go – 10/24/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. My performance evaluation is coming up. I evaluated myself already and it’s weird because I didn’t get any feedback and I wasn’t sure how to answer the questions or the process because it’s my first cycle going through it at this organization. I’m sort of anxious because my boss…

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…

Fix the leaders, fixes the problems – 10/12/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It starts at the top. You see how they operate and perform especially how they hire and it trickles down. I came here in Jan 2025, hard year for me the whole year. At times when I think back like now I should’ve stayed where I was, but here…

Don’t have to conform or be liked – 10/11/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I am not liked by all because I acquired a skillset of the last 20 years. No one realizes this is not something that one is born with. I worked hard, really hard. I read, research, ask questions, and most of all care. I have put so many years…

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…

Causing a shake up – 9/17/25

I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m in a calm state today, no stress, not pushing anything, chasing, and asking for the creation of the project accounts. I’m only doing what I can and have control over. My mental health is important and not going to give it away. There are others that do nothing…

Don’t quit – 9/3/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I can’t believe it I was asked not to quit? Why? I’m not sure what gave them the idea, but I did comment, “I haven’t seen anything like this before in my career.” The MD “LAU” as I call her looked defeated and gave in on the in-fighting happening…

A worker’s influence – 9/2/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Despite being super busy everyone was needing my time today via email, Teams, text, and phone. Today was also our big meeting with the sponsor on our new budgets for the next 2 years. I tried my best to provide the guidance and support to all. It was a…

Friday reflection – week of endings and competition – 8/29/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I wish I had my own system in place to make decisions ahead of time and then be able to audit my own decisions and go through my list of things to take care of each week. Unfortunately I don’t because I am overwhelmed with follow through and executing…
