Today was a miserable day. Maybe that's because...
- I only got 4 hours of sleep last night, so I was tired.
- Work was super busy and I had a hard time keeping up, especially when problems arose that took extra time.
- My lunch break was super super late - over six hours from when I started - so I was hungry.
- I have a friendship that is being threatened, in wisdom. Is it the best thing for us to be friends, or is it better to let it go? Neither of us would really want that, but there's a third party that throws a wrench into things.
- I had a tense encounter with a manager and although I understood where she was coming from and didn't blame her, I couldn't help it when tears came out in my voice.
- My manager came to me to have a little debrief on the situation with the other manager. He was sympathetic when I explained to him that I was having a bad day, and he offered me whatever I needed - extra breaks, going home early, etc. He said he loves and respects me (kinda strange...) and he appreciates how I have balanced work with school, and still invested into work. That conversation also almost made me cry.
As a result...
- I was on the verge of tears all day, and I cried all the way home.
- There were mistakes in my work that I couldn't fix.
- I was blatantly unsympathetic to another guy who got a late break.
- I made a flirty comment to a coworker that I think I regret.
- I left without wishing hardly anyone Merry Christmas.
- At the end of the day my head hurts.
