I made a bit of a stink over it due to the short notice (and the loss of holiday worked pay) which only served to annoy my superiors.

Please do not make a big stink. I want them to love you [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I sympathize. I'm not having the greatest time at work these days. It's like all the fun drained away and now it is making me sad. I don't work well under stress and let me tell you there's nothing like having 2 bosses standing over your shoulder tapping their foot and asking if you're almost done to make you feel stressed.

Now, on top of being stressed out and having another deadline this week, I'm feeling sick to my stomach. I ate at Chipotle yesterday and it made my stomach hurt. Can undercooked rice make you ill? I hate that place.

Being stressed at work Sucks! I feel pretty fortunate to really enjoy my work and where I work. I have worked jobs that were just jobs before with way too much to do and a lot of stress and I do not miss that. One of the best things I ever did was move from the private sector to education and non-profit. If feels really good knowing that you are working for a place that is trying to do some good or educate kids. Not trying to brag, I just feel really fortunate and thankful that I fell into this. I am sure I could be making more money somewhere else doing what I do but it is a good trade off to me.

Chipotle! I LOVE Chipotle. I had heard of this place but wasn't able to try it until last summer when I was in Vegas for a training class. There is not a Chipotle anywhere near me so it was a real treat! It reminded me of a place in IL near a company I worked for that served burritos that were very similar. MMMMM..... I am heading back to Vegas in a couple of weeks and I know this will be one of our stops for a meal!!!
