The title is your fair warning for the following post. I am a bit on the crabby side and will not take any advice so just let me vent okay? Thanks.
I’m crabby. I had a crap day at work today. Yes, the world was falling apart right around me. So what if it was just my voice I lost, people on the phone not being nice to me even though I had no voice, the 7-up bottle exploded on me, a sunflower kernal stabbed my gums, I had a fever, didn’t feel good…. ugh. I hate days when the world is falling apart. And then, when I’m involved in activities where I am not the leader and so, as an experienced leader in other things, I count on the leader to communicate. But all I get is an automated email giving some detail but not the detail that had originally been discussed by that leader and so I assume things (while not feeling 100%) and then find out things happened anyway. BAH! Hello????? I can’t work that way. I need more detail. And NO I will NOT bend that need at all. YOU need to conform to ME on this one. I adapt, I conform, I do this and that and everything else for people but I expect a little of that in return because I will NOT be walked on. No way!!!!
My schedule is important to me. My time and what I do with it is important to me. I want to be at events that are for the well being of things I’m involved with but ambiguous communication is CRAP. No thank you. I’m tired of leadership not growing a pair and taking the initative to communicate or whatever they need to do to follow up with the people they lead in a way that isn’t like “hey.. i’m the leader, so i’m better than you and you do what I say.” Instead be like, “hey mel.. did you get the message? so this is what we’re doing.. just following up.. hope you can make it!” THAT is a leader. THAT is communication. THAT is something I can work with.
I could be PMSing… nope it’s not that time yet. Is this good witness on my character? Should I be worried about who comes across my blog right now?
NO.. because I’m being myself and I’m being human and if I’m being unreasonable so have YOU at some point in your life!!!!!!!!!!!
So THERE! (Yeah I know I sound like a 4 year old but I don’t care…)
