I just came back from a gyne appointment - I do not have cancer, I release the health~ma I've been bogarting for a couple weeks. Also, I just got a new boss; they promoted a team member to take over my former manager's position, so I guess we're not about to be fired. It's all good news today - but now I should go back to work and I just want to cry and go to bed.
My concentration has been shizzle this whole awful year. I need life and the universe to settle down and stop scaring me.
Hooray for good news. That's a lot of stress to release at once.
email person A asking them to email person B so they can email person C about a question person Z had.
OMG, yes. And it is frequently my job to be person B or C. We are trying to reduce that, but it's slow going.
{{Zen}} Hope the new boss works out well.
I have a headache. I really want to go home and lie down but (a) just got word of a big change at one of my customers that I may have to deal with and (b) I took the bus today and wouldn't be able to catch one heading homewards for half an hour anyway. Bah.
And now my boss and my coworker are sniping at each other in a meeting with a project manager. This is super-fun.
Hooray for good news. That's a lot of stress to release at once.
Yeah, that's a crapton of stress to release all at once. Can you set a timer and cry for like 10 minutes and then get back to work?
And also, hooray!
(I never did drink a beer, but I hung up the flag bunting on the porch. We are politically festive now.)
And they're arguing about prioritization of issues for the rest of the release schedule, when they ought to know full well there's a 98% chance the schedule will slip. Grr.
I'm glad the news was good, Zen.
Thanks, y'all. We're about to find out if work and hard cider are compatible.
Timelies all!
Home now. I have a one day work week this week. I go in tomorrow, but Wed. and Thursday I have late morning appointments, and decided to not bother trying to go in after that. Friday is a holiday.
