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…

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…

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.…

Facing more bad news – 10/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I started working at 8:20am this morning. Had a little late start to my work day. I took my time and took a deep breath and prayer before I got my day started. I feel I’m in a nightmare, this really happens at work and to me. I question…

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…

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…

A sticky situation – 10/16/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Her energy is draining and this lady “MM” is trying to hide the truth and we’re not seeing eye to eye. I’m moving through the energy and she’s still asking for me to watch her do her work?! She believes it’s my duty to sit on Teams and watch…

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…
