| Here is a collection of ruminations and whatnot. |
| Those who are at a crossroads in their career should ask a life coach about how best to navigate their worklife and find a way through the jungle that is your current workplace. I consulted a life coach at a reputable website which was where I was a member of, and the sessions were decent - three sessions and a half hour each. The life coach had good insight into a specific issue I had with a supervisor and told me that I needed to veil our convos. She said that when this supervisor was giving me a hard time, to draw a veil between us, to give this woman a detached connection from me. So that nothing she really said would matter, nor affect me as a human being, as a person of integrity. There's more to life than a job. Jobs come and go. When you're respected and valued, then you need to become engaged and help in the mission of that workplace. When they start ignoring your suggestions, it's time to find another place or leave and sit in contemplation to decide Now that the pandemic is shutting people down in their jobs, furloughing them, it's the time to sit back, have a cig or a glass of wine, and start to go through what it is that is really the thing you want out of the rest of your life. Examine every facet of your life. It might be useful to talk to people but I've found that people you know have their own agenda about you as a part of their lives. These people are the ones who could have been trashtalking about you behind your back. Seek an outside source, EAP or some other org to help. |
