Even when you love your job, work is still work.
I am annoyed as hell with someone at work who keeps asking for information I’ve provided literally half a dozen times. Every time I remind him that we’ve already discussed and resolved the issue, he quietly stutters his apology.
Instead of turning into a rage animal because OMG WHY ARE YOU NOT DONE WITH THIS PROJECT YET?!, I am taking the calm and patient approach. Patience is, ahem, somewhat out of my comfort zone but this kid is fresh out of college, shy as anything and probably completely overwhelmed. I feel bad for this kid and an evil lawyer boss from my first job still haunts my memories.
So yes, let’s review on the phone for the upteenth time these painfully simple documents and I will not passive aggressively chastise you for your incompetence.
I think I deserve some karma points for today.

This week I'm in Connecticut but I don’t stay put for very long. I’m a nonprofit finance professional extraordinaire, and I love to climb mountains and travel to places no one else wants to go.
