improve my work life balance

...to give up on this.

is to work less.

so that should help. It’s hard right now at work because with this crappy economy situation right now, they’re pushing “lean” thinking and operating, which translated means fewer people doing more work, but still doing it perfectly. That sorta puts a lot of pressure on everyone.

Well, I’ve relocated to my third store in one month… as soon as I just start getting to know what the general routine is, I get moved. At my last store, I didn’t even have time to meet everyone before I was whisked away to work at another location! I’m thinking that I just may be able to stay at the store I’m at for the time being. It’s been extremely stressful, but I’m happy about a couple of things… the people at the stores that I’ve had to leave didn’t want me to leave, even after only working with me for a couple weeks (made me feel good!) and I’ve also learned that I’m more flexible than I thought I was, with being able to just up and switch stores like that while being able to maintain the quality of work that I’m used to.
