It was just one of those weeks where life goes along with nothing quite remarkable.
I had a date marked on my calendar, but the day will pass with no end in site for IT. I had a target date for IT to end, but that has changed again. I had a birthday; I spent the evening with Saba at the dog park. No big plans, no big celebration, I wasn’t in the mood for an event this year.
No news on the work re-org, I was told not to start any long term projects and a memo about not flexing time or working OT without prior authorization. I had to ask for clarification on that, did they really want me to call in the middle of the night? No, just send an email letting them know I had worked.
I was busy this week with cases, but they were not for my unit, they were all for other agency’s. I was helping out one agency and had to leave because of the no OT issue. I found out later in the evening that no one was in the office with them. I called to check on them, but they were doing fine. I found out the next morning they had gotten a confession.
I am working through my disappointment with my work unit: I have lowered my expectations again. It’s sad that my work hours are no longer something I looked forward to. I used to be so proud to say I was part of the group, but no longer.
The weekend looks to be quite, I am going to plant some roses, putter around the house and do some chores and relax a bit.
