So my good friend texted me last night at 10-ish for me to send her my address. I was asleep. Today I got an email about something with Pema Chodron, if you know Buddhist teachers she is a really big deal. In any case my friend also called me to tell me she bought me this ticket for an event in about 3 weeks on a Wednesday in the middle of the day. She is super excited, I wanted to be more excited however I was also really thrown off and in the middle of camp.
I put in a request for the day off, however I am realizing I am kinda mad. I have to put in for time off months in advance for summer programming. It is not so easy to just take a weekday off. I am the boss which is a level of responsibility and an example. I had my time off request in early and expected the same from all my staff. I did the paperwork to request it, however now I am not even sure I want to go through with it. There is an element of not understanding my job, another person did this today with a bunch of texts asking me about things. I finally just said I had a bald eagle visiting at work so I had to go (very awesome actually). I guess maybe it is that hard to understand my work? Or maybe it is just general lack of something,
