Guest guest Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 Hi all, Hope everyone had a grand weekend. I finally got a chance to get started on a new stained glass window. This one has about 90 pieces, so I will be busy for a while. I just work on it a little at a time so I don't get too tired. Work is starting to get to me...not healthwise, just the work. I work for the City of San Diego, and as I'm sure you all know the State economy is in the crapper, and the governator is taking away all the city generated income to fund the state. We had layoffs a year ago, and we're getting ready to have them again in July. My job is fairly safe, but I'm having to do more work to make up for those that are gone. Right now I'm doing my job and a former co-worker's job, and they are wanting me to add on another person's job....and I think I've had enough of feeling like I'm being taken advantage of. So far I haven't complained or even really said much. I've just been a good " team player " , but now I realize that I'm the only one on the " team " . I don't want to do anything rash like quit because my benefits are fantastic. I probably would have already left if I didn't have Lupus, but since I do, I feel like I really can't afford to give up the great benefits. Yet another way Lupus is forcing me to adapt. I know I'll just keep plugging along doing what I have to do, but it sure doesn't feel nice right now. I'm trying to not get angry and stressed about it so I don't flare, but they sure do make it difficult to remain serene. Hope everyone has a peaceful and productive week.
