Damned Scorpio moon
Apr. 14th, 2003 04:26 pmI jumped on the warpath way too soon with the work situation, which is typical for my emotions & I to assume the automatic worst thing possible.
My supervisor wasn't after getting a temp; she was all set to hire another person on a 50% time basis to make this a full time job! When I convinced her there wasn't that much extra work, only enough for one 60-75% position, she seemed worried.
It never dawned on her that I would be willing to work extra hours, and starting today I'm now on 60% time until we add this extra unit. Then we'll see how things go as to whether or not we need to add more to it. Complete flexibility is mine as I choose and is needed for work hours and working from home.
I really have to reign in that worst assumption thing I do. It's almost gotten me in serious trouble more times than I can count and is not what I want to model for Kieran.
