Stress Relief

Right now I'm imagining myself as an animated character with steam coming out of my ears.

I get SO tired of pushing back on a particular person here and effectively saying, "NO, that's your job. I am not your handmaiden."

This is the same person who often calls me on my cell phone in the evening.

I don't answer those calls because, hello, I work 8:30 - 5:00....it's not like I'm salaried.

This is what Carrie would look like as an animated character with steam coming out of her ears.

I keep telling everyone I work with that boundaries are our friends. They don't believe me ... yet.

Good for you!

Yeah, I'm unfortunately stuck setting boundaries with a "flexible" job. It's hard!

I'm trying to show my co-workers that clearly defined responsibilities lead to greater efficiency. A novel idea!
