Waiting for the other shoe to drop. Who hasn’t heard that saying before? Who hasn’t felt that?
I used to live that feeling day after day when I was back in the corporate world. It is an awful feeling. A sick feeling in the pit of your stomach. The feeling that nothing you do is going to be right. That everything you do is under a microscope…being examined for any imperfection that can be magnified and pointed out to you.
Ah yes. What a lovely way to live your life.
The anxiety. The feeling of hopelessness. Looking over your shoulder all the time. Second guessing every decision.
Lots of you out there are doing the same thing right now. Maybe that is the cause of all of those sleepless nights?
What say you?

And if you are so inclined….toss your email over there to the right and my insanity will be sent to your mail server everytime I get a wild hair up my…..nose…yeah. My nose. That is what I meant to say.

Quarter-to-quarter numbers! And, according to our legacy leadership, our new corporate leaders say we have no credibility. What? It was our legacy leadership that determined the insanely high number for us! We didn’t have a voice in it at all! Screw it. Fire us all, and see what your numbers are!

Ahhhhhh, corporate ‘Murica at its best. Push that stress down the ladder to the point that the rung breaks…there are always more to take the place of those who didn’t survive.
