Bah!
My work return got more awkward yesterday and even more awkward this morning.
I'm going to be doing my old job and the temp, Jo, who has been doing my current job will continue to do so. After I'm back full time we'll switch... but I'll be working in the same office, at a station that isn't mine, doing a job that ultimately will not be mine...
Plus yesterday on the phone when I meant to indicate to a very important someone on campus that Jo didn't know to contact her instead of her boss and that's probably why we hadn't heard back from her about scheduling a meeting, I said it all wrong and now Jo thinks I threw her under the bus... I apologized several times yesterday but she's still talking to me about it and teamwork and reputation, etc, etc, etc.
God, I hate this.
Plus, how can I justify the raise I was promised?
AND yesterday an advisor announced she is leaving. And she is in one of the two or three positions I am qualified for. So my former 'dreamworld job #2" opened up and now I'm not sure I want it... or if I can even really apply for it if I do want it. :-/
Additionally, I haven't been able to pump enough to keep Eleanor in a good milk supply, and the fenugreek makes me have to run to make it to the bathroom now that I'm in a stressful position again... don't even get me started about what happened at the staff retreat...
So although home-life is pretty good, work life sucks right now.
