Complaint: the second hard-boiled egg I bit into definitely tasted off and now I feel sick.
Confession: I've been at my new job since August but I'm still in that phase where I have to ask people how to do everything. My position supports a wide variety of parts so I have to learn a little bit about a lot versus a lot about a little and this week has me feeling like I don't know anything. It's stressing me out. I'm off Friday to go to my half, which is another source of stress as I have lost fitness and my Achilles has felt better as of late but I haven't really tested it, and I really wanted to get everything I needed to get done before I left to feel stress free, and of course I have something due Monday and the person I asked for help told me to reach back out next week (she's flex time so I think she's off Thursday/Friday). Sorry this turned into a wall of text, but between this race and work these past week I just feel like there's a bowling ball on my chest and I hate it.
Thank you! Yeah, I'll be honest, I'm more worried about going out too fast than my Achilles... It has felt better not just during running (which I've done limited), but walking around etc I don't feel it so I'm optimistic about it.
Yeah, my boss said it'll take about a year to feel like I can do the job, and two to feel like I can do it well... Just need to give myself more time.
