Really, though, I hope I didn't come off as complaining. Turns out I did need to vent my spleen, however, and I guess I did get, uh, triggered when my supervisor wanted to talk about workload. She communicated that she wanted to ensure that I understood the amount of work that typically comes with this job and, OK, I did get a bit defensive at that. I told her that I was well aware of the amount of work, having needing to stay up to an extra two hours to finish on many days. I am not completely sure she understands my thinking on that. She seemed to keep saying that if I felt pinned down to reach out. I think I let both my supervisor and my boss know that regardless of how I feel, if there is work that belongs to someone else, that work should go to that someone else. The possible solution that I think was offered in the meeting, which I want to reach, are possible, uh, conclusions if the work gets to be overwhelming.
We'll see how well we understand each other, my supervisor and I, for I am in The Fourth Department today and tomorrow. My boss tells me that I probably will be working at least a couple days there every week for the rest of my time at my company. He also says he's trying to get permission to find a third person who will have the position similar to mine, and that would help. Regardless, I hope my, uh, outburst yesterday didn't call for bad karma on me the rest of my workweek.
