in the midst of damage control plannings and managing up (which i’m so grateful for) i was told i’m not to quit this week. i thanked my “little” boss for setting a clear expectation for me and we laughed.
today, i received an email from a fellow supervisor i met in training & connected with, saying she won’t see me at the supervision training completion celebration on friday because she took a position outside of the organization and this is her last week.
it is what it is (ugh, i hate that expression but there it is). since the training began we started noticing few people dropped in the middle of the training period. resiliency, good physical/mental health, and a little bit of sleep go a long way in this transitioning period.
also thick skin. a backbone. both of which i wasn’t born with.
no quitting. one week at a time.
