I left my previous job because I felt stuck and yearned for growth and fresh challenges. Now, in my current role, I find myself swamped with work—sometimes to the point of being overwhelmed. It’s a classic case of ‘be careful what you wish for,’ right? Despite the long hours, including evenings, holidays, and weekends, I continue to supervise my staff diligently. My bosses keep me busy with an endless stream of tasks and to-do lists. Today, I’ve been up since 5 am, juggling calls from various departments, giving instructions, and planning. While it can be exhausting and stressful, I remain thankful for these blessings. Interestingly, most of what’s happening seems to work in my favor. I’m also appreciative of my bosses’ faith in this twenty-nine-year-old manager.
I've been reminding myself to rest and to take care of my over all well-being but the thing is, I have to make sure the lab would not commit errors because the lives of our patients rely on the accuracy of the results we release. Oh, the dillema!
