I still love my job,
09/07/2007
I just don’t like where I work this week.
I created a pile of goop by asking a few questions; apparently it has been taken as a challenge by my supervisors. Each time I think the goop has gone away, it comes back up and there is another piece of it stuck somewhere else. I guess the lesson here is that if you challenge anything or anyone, there are ramifications that come back later. I just wish this work week would end: I am tired, I am drained, and I feel like I am under a microscope. I wish I could just take today day off, but I think that would be taken as another challenge.
I went to my yoga class last night, it was good to get away from everything for an hour. I have given the problem up to God. I need to let the stress go, it doesn’t seem to do me any good. I need to keep a mantra in my head for the next 8.5 hours at the office, something positive. I need to remember, it’s only a job, a paycheck, a way to make money and get some health benefits and a retirement plan. I need to keep my head low, duck when controversy raises its ugly head. I can’t get involved with gossip and just make plans for my life outside of the office.
I think I will look for a few classes to attend: a couple of things for my desk and try to make myself as comfortable as I can. I am sure this will all pass, someday. The goop can’t hang around for ever. It has just been an icky week at work. I am still there, I have a job, my paycheck didn’t bounce and there are still bad guys to be caught.
