Yeah, I don't think that's my issue, meara. I've experimented with setting the max differently a bit in the last few weeks and I think the setting I'm using now if not totally accurate at least lines up okay with how hard I feel like I'm working for the higher levels of effort anyway. I just have a high resting hr. Trending down over time if my little spreadsheet graph can be believed, though, so that's something.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

Early morning teleconference is an early morning training this week. So bored.

Blech. My morning call is not until 9, hooray! That's what happens when no one in Central tells me what time would be good for them.

No morning calls, but I just realized I have 3 meetings today, I've spent the last 90 minutes being defeated by this stupid query and I'm possibly preemptively cranky. I wished dire things upon the idiot earbudded student pedestrians who think nothing of walking into a street from blind spots between parked cars, as if that isn't dire enough. I'm surprised half the JHU population makes it to graduation, IJS.
First meeting shortly.

Today I am calling 25 people to ask them if they really wanted to place a hold on the sheet music for Taylor Swift's 1989 album, or maybe they wanted the CD instead. My coworker gets Ed Sheeran.

flea, that is cracking me up! Imagine their faces as they came in to pick up the CD, and got the sheet music!
I used to borrow sheet music from the library all the time, though. I remember being so excited when I realized they had musical scores!

Ugh. About to go into what will be a really awful call for work. I have to tell one of my direct reports her role is being downgraded from Senior Manager to Manager. It's not my call, but my manager is on vacation so I get to drop the hammer. Really sucky situation.

And it was not awful. She'd noticed that on other teams new hires were coming in at Manager not SM and did not seem surprised or particularly concerned. Her bonus will be impacted but not salary so I guess that helps.
My own manager doesn't really think this person is right for the job, and I imagine she is hoping for more of a reaction. But while I don't think she was doing much with the role previously, this past month she's really stepped it up so I'm good with her. I really didn't want to cut the legs out from under her improvement, so I hope this reaction holds.

Oh, that sounds like a tough situation, brenda. Glad it was not awful.
One of my sales people and one of the account people can't make my call. Two of the account people have not responded. Sigh. Well, if I have to schedule another one later I guess that's not terrible, maybe we can get something done today..
