It's already noon, and I have not made a dent in my to-do list for today at work because I've been pulled off in other directions by people. How do you prioritize when *everything* is critical and needs to get done ASAP???
One of my staff sent me an email this morning to try to set up a meeting with me. I was in another meeting at the time and didn't respond to her email until I got back to my office a couple of hours later. She told me that she was talking by phone with another one of our staff who was on her way to the airport for vacation and told her that I hadn't responded to her email yet this morning. The response that she got was "She probably quit." Yup, things are pretty bad right now....
And, I have not gotten my vacation request approved by my supervisor for the Mexico trip. She's been giving me a hard time about taking time off recently because it's difficult to arrange coverage by other staff for what I do. Knowing that, I purposefully checked in with her about my plan to take a week off at the beginning of August before K and I even booked the trip. This will be the straw that breaks the camel's back if she does not approve my vacation request. It's booked, so we're going regardless...
