Today was one of those days.
Almost everything hurts.
Head. Eyes. Throat. Back. Legs. Butt.
Yet, I still barreled through the day getting stuff done. And in the end, what do I have to show for it. I’m not getting anything extra for showing up.
I should have taken one of those perks of the job – the sick day.
But I didn’t.
Instead, I diligently showed up for my job doing the work without thanks or appreciation.
Fighting fires. Dealing with escalations. Decisions to make. Staff problems to resolve.
And the kicker – doing monthly reports to show how terribly I’ve done over the past month.
Oh, joy!
It just doesn’t seem worth it.
