Today was a tough day at work. A major hiccup with an employee over time off. I anticipated a bad reaction and arranged for our HR manager to come and talk about the rules around her situation...but it still did not go well. I try to be more than fair whenever possible...but sometimes, rules are rules and I cant make exceptions to policy that we enforce with everyone else. I left work very frustrated and disappointed. Sometimes I wish staff could walk a mile in the managers shoes when this kindof stuff happens.
So back on topic...I will sure be glad to see payday gets here on Friday. This has been one of those pay-periods where the money ran out before it was time for payday. I am trying really hard not to dip into savings, but will be forced to if any expenses occur before Friday.
My friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer learned that they will be doing a mastectomy in the next couple of weeks. She has stage two- not sure which type tho. It breaks my heart for her but she is handling it fairly well. She wants to get the cancer behind her so that she can get back to her life.
Sorry for the down mood tonight. Its just been a tough one. sigh.
Tough Day.
