Things aren't all that different at work lately, but maybe I have turned a corner and am seeing it all differently. I still feel like there are people there who shouldn't be there, and I still feel like we are losing people that we shouldn't lose...but more and more I also feel like I should settle down and fly under the radar. Stop complaining and venting about work altogether - at home and at work. Find more joy in the day. And busy myself with what I am supposed to do to make myself more effective and make the day go smoother. It's definitely a work in progress type thing. Sounds overly simplistic and in reality, is challenging as hell.
Hallways that stretch into foreverrrrr at the end of a long day...
When I walk to the timeclock every evening I want to be able to say I did my best in all things: in how I related to the customers I served and in how I interacted with my fellow employees. I want to say I didn't spend time dwelling on the past and am moving confidently into the future. I want to make the most of the time I have in this profession, at this place, and say I was successful. I definitely don't want a small, disappointing slice in time to define how I feel about all of that. And I also don't want anyone else to be responsible for how I feel about it all. And I am starting to feel like I am getting there.
