Snapped at my boss again this morning. Clearly not the ‘diplomatic way’ of handling these things… then again the mere mention of that particular project seems to sent my blood pressure rising. I guess that happens when I’m told from the start to forget about the right way of doing things because the customer wants it done differently.
However, later on it struck me that I was surely driving myself completely mad over that bit of work. Now why would I do a thing like that? Perhaps it’s the fear that this one thing will be the basis for my entire evaluation come January. It’s not an impression which is entirely unfounded.
Still, why do I let this happen? After all it’s not like anyone else here seems that obsessed about their work. Perhaps it’s even counterproductive for me to do so; that certainly seems to be the case with this project or take their work trouble home the way I do. I should adopt a saner attitude towards work, I guess.
