Yep, two times writing in one day!
I felt like I needed to write again to attempt to assess what did and didn’t go so well today.
First the GOOD:
- Met with Jason
- Talked about re-committing to consistency
- Committed to sending at least an email per day
- Sent an email in the morning
- Sending another tonight
- Got lots of odds and ends done at work that I’d been putting off
- Shipped big order to George
- Shipped DVDs to Tami
- Put 2 eBooks together for UCHCC
- Finalized Invoices for Elite
- Finalized Invoices for AD
- Completed initial meta info for VIQ
- Set up FB Ad for VIQ
- Sent overview to Jeff for review
- Sent Invoices to AD and Elite tonight
- Got caught up on AD work for June and July
- Got meeting planned for tomorrow with DA and Brett
- Had a fun 1st practice with Caleb’s Soccer Team
Now some of the resentment’s I felt today:
- Work is still really tough
- Dane still hasn’t sent me any clarification or overview of what our meetings have covered
- I sent a text to Jason C. letting him know I’d outlined a revised comp. plan
- He said to send it to him for review, which I don’t really want to do for FEAR they will pick it apart
- In talking with colleagues, they recommended to be prepared to be taken advantage of in regard to work more, pay less
- Felt resentment that the only communication I had with Dane at all today was a semi negative text asking my what was going on with scheduling
- Felt resentment when I seemed to be blamed for issues with scheduling and pulls
- Felt resentment tonight when, after all the work I felt I’d done around the house to help pick up, take care of the kids, and do chores, that Becky still found something I DIDN’T do and didn’t really thank me at all for what I HAD done
- Feel resentment that the company is passing my by to work on social media projects and asking for UN and PW of accounts I set up back in the day to do work with/for them – feel like they don’t want anything to do with me (and I don’t really want to much to do with them at this point)
What did I do to get the ball rolling?
- Didn’t reach out to speak with Dane
- Got defensive because I felt threatened or that my judgment was being challenged
- Encouraged negative talk amongst colleagues about people we report to
- Haven’t been completely on the ball with scheduling, although I feel I’ve put out the necessary fires
- Let the little comments Becky said bug me too much – I should realize things aren’t easy for her and she’s not necessarily mad at me
- If my attitude doesn’t change about the company, how can I expect anything less than what I’m getting?
I have lots of work to do, but I feel this assessment is helpful.
Buenas Noches!
