Good evening

I know I have been away for a bit. A lot going on in life and constantly on the go (thought I gave that up after I stopped driving but nope, still have a CDL and still get asked to help from time to time LOL). How is everyone doing? "Okay, we know she's about to pose a ponderable question what is it!?" Well here is your discussion topic that I've been thinking about tonight.

In working relationships, I was talking to a few friends about this mostly because, well when all our work is done there isn't anything else to do, and then I have my friends outside of work that I run things by. I have noticed that our new Ops Manager seems to like me a ton at work. He always asks me for help as he is learning all the stuff that an ops manager needs to learn when they're new to a company. The interesting thing tonight is I was working on schedules tonight as it was my turn in the rotation to build the daily schedule, I noticed that I had editing permissions on the master schedule and me being me goes to my ops manager about it.

I did the usual "Hey G (won't use his full first name for privacy reasons) I noticed I have editing permissions on the master schedule, am I supposed to? (dispatchers haven't had editing for the master schedule since before I even worked at this company because too many hands in the pot cause issues) and he goes to me "With great strength comes great responsibility, just don't mess it up, and we'll keep this between us." I am still trying to determine if that's because I have proven my worth and they trust me, or if it was simply an oops or what have you. I am wondering if he intentionally gave me those permissions just based on that conversation which is fine, I will be responsible for it and treat it professionally as I do with all the other sensitive things I am entrusted with within my position.

And then our ambassador for our company actually gave me usage to his access card to one of the state buildings we work with since I am typically the one that moves buses to/from base to the various other locations we have buses out of when buses need to be swapped out. He is putting a request in for me to get my own access card, but the fact he trusts me enough to give me that access (mind you I am moving buses around tomorrow for part of my shift) just makes me feel so good.

It makes me feel extremely honored that my higher management trusts me with some things that they don't trust others with.

"Okay, Juniper what's the discussion prompt?" I'm getting there I'm getting there, LOL.

My discussion prompt for today is, what has a manager or company done for you, that made you feel honored and like you have fully proven yourself to upper management that they trust you enough with more sensitive items than most? (obviously don't go into details on confidential things, please. I don't want any of us getting in trouble for whatever reasons)

Date: 8/1/2023 6:10:00 AM  From Authorid: 55251    This is a good question if you want me to rant about my issues with management. I have yet to experience a management team that I feel was positively contributing to the workplace. Management, and in particular, “middle management” have always seemed to me as “micro-managers”; sticking their nose into things, nit-picking, turning the trivial into the priority, and generally just being a pain. I assume it’s an attempt to justify the existence of their positions. I have over 10 years of university education, which includes 3 degrees and a master’s degree. Yet, I need to get management’s approval for mundane tasks, as if I am incapable or doing it without them. So, I don’t feel a sense of honour when management deems me worthy of something, because for the most part, I don’t think the role of “management” should even exist. Probably not the answer you were looking for lol.

Date: 8/1/2023 3:12:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Juniper I try to stay away from overly sensitive material.

"L.D."---What you mean to say is that no one trusted you enough to let you anywhere near sensitive material.

kronk---Oh, yeah! Well, for your information I've been around plenty sensitive material.

"L.D."---Such as?

kronk---Not only was the material I've been around extremely sensitive; It was also top secret. I can't talk about it.

"L.D."---What a line! Juniper...kronk is so full of it. All he is capable of doing is hooking crab traps. "They" let him run the boat, once, and he ran into a
Coast Guard cutter.

kronk---That boat was in my lane!

"L.D."---Ugh!
  
Date: 8/1/2023 3:28:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Juniper Pardon my dog. He doesn't know his place. I felt a measure of pride, one day, when my big boss man called me in and told me how well the crew performed
in every assignment we were given. He said that we got along well with associates and he didn't have to worry about us at all. He also gave us a voucher
for dinner at one of the best places in the world to fried mahi mahi.

"L.D."---I'm part of the crew. Why was I not invited?

kronk---You're like a mascot. Mascots don't necessarily get invited to seafood restaurants.

"L.D."--- GRRRRRR....

kronk---OUCH !!!

Date: 8/4/2023 5:19:00 AM  From Authorid: 5940    Hello Juniper. The current supervisors That I work for hired me a second time…..ok, I first got hired by them back in 2015 and worked with them / for them approximately four years before the company we were employed by began to make “ corporate “ decisions that look great on a power point presentation but in reality are doomed to fail. So , as time went by, the company lost a lot of employees that decided to go elsewhere.

Well, I went to another job right about the time Covid hit and got contacted by one of my former bossees that was supervising at a new job, he hired my other supervisor and they sought me out on Facebook and wanted to know if I would like to work for them again. Yes, and I couldn’t be happier. The job pays much better and the benefits Rock.
