[12 Oct 2007|05:43pm] [ mood | relieved ] journal=not forgotten. (just neglected.) But! An event of sorts to be recorded and remembered: Today was a good day at work. Not for the ease of workload, not for all easily satisfied customers, not for making no mistakes--because those, of course, weren't the case, as usual--but because I. felt. appreciated. A rarity. I made a mistake, grumbled at myself, and that voiced self-condemnation was negated instead of reinforced! Trust me, I'm hard enough on myself in general that further criticism is not necessary. Without prodding, I have been known to not leave my work area for break time. How can I leave so much undone? But that, thankfully, isn't too frequent. (It can get me in trouble with the Union, for one.) I'm such a lazy person, overall, but you wouldn't know that from seeing me there. And tardiness? is only really when I'm leaving...like today XD I had to go to the desk and have them write me out, because I lost my acceptable window of time to clock out electronically--I worked an extra half hour today without noticing. Happily busy, trying to get as much done as I could, until my friendly coworker says, "Don't you leave at 4:30 today?" Ooops. I've had some really not nice days at work, and I see many more in my future, but in between are days like today, which are not awful. :) 2 comments|post comment
