I just took on a bunch of new work at my job. And, amazingly, I am revitalized. I really LIKE the people I work with, and I really LIKE what I do (for the most part, anyway…)
This past year I started becoming pretty ambivalent about things here. My way forward was being blocked by someone who sort of capitalizes on the work of other people. I am the only woman in this group of managers. I felt like I’ve been doing the same darn stuff for seven years.
All of a sudden I feel like there are some new challenges and opportunities. More than anything, I feel confident that I am up to taking these things on…
I’m worried about being overwhelmed with too much to do. The good part is that I have worked with all the people who will report to me and they honestly will be willing to pitch in and help.
I still wish I could only work because I like to, but I still HAVE to…at least there’s going to be a bit of excitement for a while…
