phynckeSo yes, I did vote and feel good about that. It feels good to participate in the process and be counted. Yah yah.
So work was just well, meh. Let's see. How can I put it? The only way I can think of is a person who I consider a friend became the total project management nazi today. We are working on a group project, let's call it organizing the filing system, which it is. Something that none of us like to do but that needs to be done. I am well aware of the imperative as are we all. Not only does it seem like most of the deadlines are mine BUT...suddenly the timetable that we all worked out in our larger staff meeting seems to have shifted to suit her vacation timing. She leaves in a few weeks and would like it done by then. Well we all figured out that we had the summer to get this done. So she proceeds to hassle me in the planning meeting and nail me on deadlines to suit her schedule. And not in a nice way. So I really don't take this. I manage projects and I don't do it like this. The idea is to build a consensus in a team way...not impose. This was not pretty. We fought most of the meeting and I raised some very valid objections at the end about her changing the time table to suit her schedule which was not what was agreed. She just walked away. So you know? This won't stand.
I put a meeting (called something else entirely) on my boss's calendar tomorrow but I am going to bring this up with her. I want her to be aware that I was not treated well here and that I have an issue with it. I don't care what she does with it. But I am really pissed. I did email my boss confidentially and give her the heads up that I needed to speak with her confidentially. But HELL NO. Tomorrow I will be calm and just let her know what happened. I may end up cancelling it but you know...based on how upset I was...she needs to know.
Anyhoo. I am making graphics and I am writing my Ardor in August. I sneaked a scene out at work since I had an idea for it. Kept the file open and wrote a little bit. I am having so much fun with it. Really am. Woot.
And now, what should I have for dinner. I am so in the mood for pizza. Ooo. O.o
