I have had quite a day of it at work. I can’t quite bring myself to go into major detail but let’s just say my job requires colleagues to keep me in copy on certain safety matters; but I belong to a profession that people generally shy away from and assume we ask too many awkward questions.
You can probably guess what happens next. Whether actively or by oversight, I am not being kept in the loop like I should be. It has happened three times this week. So I got riled and contacted folks to politely remind them. The result being that the project director gave a ticking off to the team. I’m exhilarated, feeling empowered but feeling nervous in equal measure but it had to be done. My inner rage is still seething but I probably need to drop it and move on or I won’t sleep tonight.
Not a fan of confrontation, however, do not like to be seen as a push over either.
How do you guys deal with this kind of thing?
it’s an awkward and nerve-wracking situation but clearly it sounds like it was absolutely legitimate and necessary and you weren’t going on any power trip
