So tired of drama at work. SOOOOOO tired. I don't know if I've used this metaphor before, but I feel sometimes like every day I go to a family reunion that has gone on a day too long... The gossip and the lies and the cliques...seriously. And the POLITICS ( Read more... )

That sounds really frustrating about the job.

Eek about the bridezilla.

Glad to hear that other things are going well for you.

Good luck on the eating out. I don't know what I'm doing.

It can be. I try to look at this as a huge learning experience in how not to manage and what not to do. Sad?

Yeah...I told her how I felt tonight in a very diplomatic way.

Thanks, I'm hoping that knowing others out there know will help as some semblance of accountability. :) I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Thanks! I'm going to try and avoid doing the whole bridezilla thing in a big way. Here's hoping I keep my sanity.

Didn't know gamestop was so political and gossipy. Really, you think a gamer company wouldn't really be like that.

You are braver than I am. I'm only giving up fries for Lent. A small sacrifice for me at this point.

Brides become bridezillas when they expect perfection. Just keep a very open mind, and take time for you (I got my nails and hair done a LOT!)

I'm sure that politics and gossip is pretty common at corporate headquarters in general. You would think people would have more fun at a company like GameStop, but they don't so much. It's just business.

Fries are not a small sacrifice. :)

ah, yes. politics, lies, and gossip. sbux is the only company that i worked for that kept that at a minimum. i have learned to play the game, smile, say as little as possible, and try to stay out of it. it's the only way to survive! try not to let it bring you down too much.

sorry to hear about the wedding mess. i hope it gets better for you.

yay for the red book! enjoy! will dr. kugelmann allow auditing the day you present? :)

hang in there girl.
big hugs!
talk to you soon.

You're so smart.

I think the wedding mess will be fine. It's only three more weeks, and I'm not the maid of honor so I don't have much to do except look pretty. :)

Dr. K is so laid back, I'm sure he wouldn't mind at all! I'll see him next Tuesday and I'll ask if it's okay to have visitors, I think Kyle might try to come too.

Thanks, I appreciate you. Love and miss.
