Ok, today was a bad day!
I had a complete melt down about 7:00 pm
Over the last week I have worked major over time...........
from last Monday to today, 81 hours!
I am tired and have to be back at work in the morning at 630 then head
over to the conference by 700am
While at the conference, my boss said that I had to answer every email sent during the day by end of business....{she really didn't want to send me to this conference, tried everything she could to not let me go}
well, as you can guess, she emailed me a lot today. which was somewhat distracting during an amazing conference my phone kept beeping.
I was in a working session, where we were trying to change a behavior with ourselves that would make us a better leader, when I got this really awful email.
I won't get into the details, but she cc'd numerous people and didn't have my back on an issue (which, I feel she should have spoken to me first since I did send out the information that was needed months ago, I verified when I got back to the office. but now the damage is done)

I am running on no sleep, and stress from getting my project to a point that I could go to this event that is really important to me.
When I got back to the office after 7pm I ran into someone, she said, "love our space! you did a great job, the move was smooth!"

Well, I just lost it.
I started to cry! tears just streamed and I couldn't stop.
It was horrible.
I so need a hug right now. and some sleep.
I kinda feel like this bear right now!

ps I will be back soon, hopefully in a more happy place with good information about the conference I am attending. I am off to bed now!
What a nightmare. I am so sorry that she is being so difficult just for the sake of it, particularly when you were at a conference that is so impactful and life affirming/changing. If you ever need to talk or cry, please stop by. You were a lifesaver with wonderful advice for me.
ReplyDeleteI've heard nothing but compliments about the new space. It can hardly get better with the highly anticipated wet bar and hot tub.
Oh no! Callie! I've had that happen to me when I had a job that ran me to the ground. I'm not a cryer, but they pretty much bled me dry & one day I reached breaking point. Thankfully it forced me to leave that industry & find something so much better & an amazing boss that appreciates me. I truly hope the rest of your week gets better.
