Busy. Stressed. A touch unhappy. That is how it has been lately. Work has moved beyond the ridiculous. Again I find myself dissatisified with the leadership of my workplace.
I am stuck in the middle. Trying to protect my staff from the unreasonable demands of the 'management' seems to be a main focus. Things that have happened recently have really upset me, although I have to hide it at work.
I keep telling myself that I have to be resiliant. I have to prove that I can easily survive the 'punishments' I get from the person above me. Thats what I get for speaking my mind. She wonders why she cannot keep people in the 'middle management' positions. My fantasy is to tell her exactly why.
Ironically, she thinks that she runs a collaborative work place.
I know that working in this place is a test. My test.
I have to keep telling myself that I can get through it with dignity. I find it a great struggle to remain 'professional' but that is what I have to do.
I have never been in this positon before. I have always had such good relationships with my 'bosses'.
Weird.
