Hi Ladies!
I just wanted to share my joy at starting my new job today. It was so great to get into a really welcoming office and everything is moon and stars better than my old one.
For example:
At my old job we had to track every 1/4 hour in massive spreadsheets. New job? No!
Old job? Super anxious about being late, leaving early. New job? They are all, "Do your work! Do what you need!"
Old job? Long and painful steps to handle "courageous conversations" with staff that really needed to be addressed by management. New job? A boss who seems to have my back and think that new-age ridiculousness is just that: ridiculous. She was all, "***! Just act like a grown-up, right?" She is irreverent and funny and I LIKE her.
I'm thrilled, just thrilled. Also, I'm exhausted and my ankles are puffy. Now, off to lie down for the second half of Downton Abbey!

"Things separate from their stories have no meaning. They are only shapes. Of a certain size and color. A certain weight. When their meaning has become lost to us they no longer have even a name. The story on the other hand can never be lost from its place in the world for it is that place.” ― Cormac McCarthy, The Crossing
