Ok...I have decidee that my boss is a very sweet lady but she way too PASSIVE in her management style. She does not speak up and does not go to bat for her "girls" on any level. She would rather them get in trouble for HER mistakes and screwups then for her to take it and admit that she messed up.
So I went over her head and talked to the property manager and I asked her about my side job. She was super cool about it. She pretty much was Ok with it and did not have a big problem with it. So I was all set to start on Thursday but the client now wants to wait till after the Hoildays. Fine and dandy! At least I know I have side job opportunnities. I also decided today that I will not say anything to anyone about what I am doing. I will be totally quiet about it. The girls I work with are way too chatty about personal stuff....and stuff gets around!!!!!! So MUM is the word. I got a very nice kudoos today from a sweet lady today. Because of me she told me......she decided to leave her bed and eat in the dining room. She said I gave her courage!This is a woman who has not left her bedroom for 1 year. She told me I gave her courage to venture out. I was so happy for her. I was so happy for me.
She was going to eat dinner in the dining room again tonight....she was so excited to get out and begin life a bit with this small step. I was excited for her. I feel like I have purpose in so many areas of my life. At times I struggle with that.
My ex really socked it to me on many levels....and to begin to see myself in new ways is really a great gift to myself. It was a wonderful Christmas bonus for me!
