What you would consider the worst part of your day? How do you overcome the negativity?

For me, it's the end of the day when I’m trying to leave. Inevitably, there is a last minute request that results in working later. Often, the request could have waited until tomorrow.

The worst part of my day is usually getting out of bed and getting ready for work. I am so burned out right now and can't seem to find another role. But I do my best to put a smile on my face and go to work with a positive attitude.

The worst part about my day is knowing that my manager, who is supposed to advocate for myself and the team, doesn’t have an ever loving clue as to how to do a good portion of the team’s work, nor have they made a real attempt to learn. Ostrich - insert head in sand = My manager. It’s very disappointing and it leads to an inequitable distribution of assignments, because we also inherited a peer who is equally ill equipped.

When I think of the worst part of the day, it's not at a standard time. It's whenever I wind up in a meeting and I have no idea why I'm there or why I'm listening to a pointless word salad of buzzwords. It usually happens about once a week, we all have to hear how we're going to double down on some nonsense that isn't working and will never work.

Biberty? Is that you?
