This week was a truly hectic week at work. I don’t work in fear of what could/might happen. My philosophy is to be the best at what I do, do your best. What will be, will be. You can’t control how employees will rate you on surveys, whether they will call corporate to make complaints about you, whether they will do their job or not. You can’t control people, the are unpredictable. It’s human nature.

I have been so frustrated with upper management not listening to not just me about things that aren’t working, but the supervisors also. It’s frustrating when they are managing in fear. To hear nothing but negativity day to day, drops moral. With all the focus on the front line employees and keeping them happy, the moral of management and supervisors gets thrown to the wayside. And I can state for a fact, my moral has hit rock bottom. And I’ve let what’s happening at work bleed into my personal life.

I try my very best to compartmentalize my life. Work stays at work, personal stays personal, but this week my frustrations with work bled over to my personal affecting it all including school. I need to pull out my yarn and knit till everything is serene again.
