this has been a slow week… slow and tough… I began my day well, and had a pleasant ride to the OFFICE with a co-worker who happened to be at the commuter lot! so I didn’t have to make that long walk…that I don’t mind doing, but I didn’t know if there would be another car coming, so I got into her car. 🙂

I also forgot to take my PIV card with me, but got another co-worker who saw it in my workspace, and delivered it to the security guard so I could get into the building. 🙂

felt blessed this morning.

then I read this email about the “four pillars of upon which the federal workforce will be built. 1. be honest. be reliable. be flexible…be professionally kind. 2. decide if you want to resign or retire. 3. show up to work, not stay home and telework.

basically those three, key things. sounded so severe, so sudden.

somber mood in the office. one woman announced that she would retire–she’s young and can get another job probably easily.

I’m working with those who, I think, are better than others. pretty arrogant individuals. they are tough to work with.

I need to start changing my attitude toward them. I need to work on the things I need to do–plan my exit stragegy… get the important work done…one bite at a time.

sending Peace, dear reader.
