Yesterday at our all-hands meeting it was announced that the whole company is WFH (or anywhere remote!) on Mondays starting this coming Monday. My guess is that things will get about 10% better not having to be in that stressful office environment one day out of five.
Other than that, it’s Wednesday morning! So far, the week has boiled down to:
Monday - probably the lowest day I’ve had so far at the company. There are SO many things I still don’t know (like every single best-seller or products that we’ve designed before), and I was royally REAMED for not knowing a group of products designed a year ago. I nearly cried in front of everyone, but held it together and then YESTERDAY (a whole freaking day later) the PD Director gave me the example that I needed the day before. It would have saved me a thousand internal tears. We are moving too fast for someone to show me an example of what I need in order to do my JOB?! Yep. That’s what it appears to be.
Tuesday - the day was a million times better (which still didn’t bring me out of my funk), but I still worked a 12 hour day with two of my four designers (third one couldn’t make the trip to the office this week and I’m interviewing for my fourth one). I did find out that I’m going to be working on a project with Irms from one of my old companies. Long story and I’ll flesh it out later but that could either be a major fantastic project or it could stress me out even further! So far, it’s stressing me out the way Chief Cutie wants me to tackle it.
OK. Time to make the donuts. Let’s see what today brings.
