If I had a mood ring…
I don’t know what color it would be but I am in a bad mood. I think it all started when my boss sent a (to me) threatening message to all store managers that if we don’t meet a 3% sales quota we will get written up and lose our bonuses. My position is not commissioned. I was not hired in as a sales person. I am more than willing to move in the direction of the company but he shouldn’t lead by fear and expect the best from his team. But, anyway I have been in a terrible mood ever since. By the way I sent him a response to his memo and I may have been too harsh. Ok, the important stuff. I have been on plan without cheating once in over two weeks. I have lost atleast I know 11 pounds from my highest weight in history. I am struggling with wanting something to snack on. My husband cooked dinner which always only consist of meat. I don’t think he knows what side dishes are. I have to straighten up because I am an emotional eater and I don’t want to set myself up for failure. I guess I’ll cook broccoli and cheese to go along with his chicken. I’ve read a couple of blogs today and a lot of people are having a hard time right now so just know that you all are in my prayers. Remember, “What you do today may inspire someone tomorrow.”
My boss is like that always trying to instill fear. My motto is ” i was looking for a job when i found this one.” Don’t let him get you down. Great job on stcking to your plan. I too am an emotional eater and after a hard day at work you want to eat something that ya know is bad for you. Keep up the good work!:)
Hey dont let the haters get you down. You can do it. Turn that frustration into action. I think you need an air punching bag… just picture your boss’ note and swing those arms!!! Hang in there -Dee
I once worked for a large compay, and the owner (who I had to work with directly) was the epitomy of evil. Don’t let anyone get you down! The worst are greedy and selfish people. They may have money, but they don’t have morals. You are better than him, remember that. Brush it off your shoulder and don’t look back.
