So i think we need to do some exercises together... I am sitting here staring at my work trying to get it done before another big meeting on monday. So katy, we're in the same boat, that's in the sky, that's on fire, and we're expected to learn how to row the boat, using teaspoons and a lamp. 🙂
At the moment, we're both focusing on the supervision part of it. But i didnt get into the job (academia) with the intention of having great times in supervisory meetings... its the work i do. I want to do the work that i do. Both of us were hired ased on our skills, experience, and something that our supervisor saw in us that they liked. So for today, JUST TODAY (because I cant look too far into the future without freaking out), we focus on why we're doing these jobs. The people we help. And the way to help people is do our job. When we get stuck we ask for assistance. Then we learn. Then we do it a bit better the next day.
So today, I am going to write my results section. I will stop to put some things together for the house because we just moved and the boxed up furniture is annoying me. Then I will enjoy some of the weather and think about what I would like to achieve in this role. Because i really do want to achieve lots, i just dont give myself any credit. like none. But like i said, someone saw potential and skill. So i need to learn to see it as well.
I will keep this thread open all day. So feel free to reply and we'll make it through.
