I knew it would be hard starting up a tertiary lab from scratch and I am grateful to the doctor in-charge of the lab, who has been really helpful, and the founders who have been very kind as well.
Working overtime doesn't really bother me, for I am passionate about improving the services of health facilities in our area. This is why working in this new hospital is exciting to me.
Workmates are starting to become my second family, in a sense where there's both love and hate. It's true that when people are under pressure, you get to see the "real" them.
One thing made me so annoyed this week...
From the day I started working, I've been collaborating with and helping other departments with things that I know about even when these things are "outside my territory". But some people just really take advantage of others' kindness. While I was swamped with so much work, they've been passing their responsibilities to me and in my head I was like "Nani the heck???? That ain't my problem." But of course I responded in a polite manner, saying I've already done what I could to help them and I've got so much stuff to do. This is me, loving myself by putting boundaries.
I have been sick the whole week, but didn't have the chance to use my "offsets" for the days we were asked to work on our days off.
I know I will be facing more challenges after this "licensing period". This is just the beginning. I pray that I'll be given unlimited supply of patience and that He guides me all throughout this journey.
