dugindeepSo work is still going strong (lol). I logged 60 hours last week, including 8 hours of holiday pay for Labor Day. Oof. My one proposal will be done tomorrow afternoon (*fingers crossed*) and I will be taking Wednesday mostly off to relax and go to traffic court then I will be having drinks with my boss to discuss my issues with work and how the last month or so have been really rough (at my insistence, not like she's calling some bad meeting). I keep saying I'll get through it, and I know I eventually will, but it's still pretty tough to survive. I'll admit there's a small part of me that's martyrish in that I always want to do it myself and get it done right ... and meanwhile everyone is just staring at me like I'm a nut.
Heck, even![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cassiopeia7 told me over drinks on Saturday that she's worried about me - three times in fact - and that kinda freaked me out, to be honest. Like ... well, shit, how come she sounds more worried than I do?
HOWEVER! Apparently a lot of this is all paying off as I just received this email from my boss, wherein she listened to a client manager brag about the work I'm doing on his proposal - TO A BUNCH OF HIGH-LEVEL MANAGERS.
He said, specifically: "Amy has been doing a great job, just a really great job; she’s amazing. She put together an excellent outline for the Snelling BRT approach that looked like a technical person wrote it, so Grey and Ralph have a good starting point."
You should be really proud of yourself! I’m really proud of you, too, since we’ve talked about working with him a few times. I think you’ve really proven yourself to Steve and he’ll probably request you for future pursuits.
I am just ... like speechless, and partly disbelieving, and yet really satisfied that my hard work is really paying off.
