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…

People quit their jobs at an average of 2 years – 10/19/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I was reading an article of why people quit their jobs and of course the main reason is their boss, no loyalty. When words have become just that, and a handshake is no longer a contract. Those days are gone. No one is a friend, and no one is…

The idea that I’m going to get paid or promoted – 10/15/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I took a couple days off and after some thought I’m not going to get paid or promoted staying here even though the supervisor has told me twice. Send me an email, hurry, where is it? Nothing has happened, but trust and having good relationships with others at work…

The performance review – 10/18/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have not written my experience with performance reviews in my industry. In my opinion, these are of no use. It keeps a record of something that you show up despite you work or not. It serves no purpose because year after year my form is marked as “exceeds…

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…

What sets us apart – 9/24/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have come to understand what sets us apart. My communication and passion I bring to this job. I thought that she was taking care of this task. I inherited the corporate card expense reports beginning this month. It all has come crashing down on her. I come out…

I hope everyone is doing okay. After a long and drawn out situation of spending on a project that had not budget, with a debt, and conversations we have a plan and submitted a settlement letter and dollar amount to the sponsor. The sponsor accepted the scope of work and research completed so now we…

As I begin to feel a good flow, this energy pulls me back! – 9/16/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. How do I even begin to explain how my day went today? When I begin to think that we are about to make progress something else has to pull me back and make me feel stuck again! I have been working from a practical and common sense point of…

Someone is satisfied I’m going through challenging times – 9/15/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. Someone is satisfied I have a lot of pressing tasks. I see it when she comes by to talk to me and I don’t have time to talk because I’m busy. She’s showing off and making it obvious to my face. I had time to reflect and do a…

Friday reflection – sacrificing myself and unlucky – 9/13/24
I hope everyone is doing okay. People are really comfortable. I started the week on a high through mid-week and now I’m tired, beat up, dumped on and they are all have gone to travel, party, and forget about work for the weekend while I have to still work to get caught up. I’m drained.…
