Testy patterns
I have deleted as many emails-in-progress as I have actually sent
messages today. I’m pretty much operating on the premise that any
instinctive response I have to any request will be taken the wrong
way. Everything is urgent, everyone is stressed, I’m just doing my
best to plow through without complicating matters further.
Let’s get it straight; for the most part I am justified in getting
irritated by some of these requests, I’m not raging out of nowhere. I
do recognize that I am probably overreacting to somes situations., so
I’m keeping all communication to a minimum.
I just have to visualize not working from the 22-28 - the longest
break I have had from work in a loooong time. It also helps that I’m
eating lunch right now - partially because I was hungry, but also
because I can’t scream when my mouth is full of food.
