Some Much Needed Reprieve

It’s been an interesting few past weeks at work. A period of time that I hope we will be leaving soon behind us and moving on to other productive things. It’s interesting to see how people respond to changes and process improvements, particularly in a corporate setting. I’ve gone through these types of changes before, a myriad of times, at other places of employment. I’m learning with some colleagues at work, that these types of changes are stressful if they have never been subjected to a process improvement review. Or have never gone through anything like this in their professional working career. Tensions have been high at work to say the least and I’m glad I can be a sounding board for colleagues that are stressed out. I’m glad I have direct work colleagues to vent to.

I’m starting to feel that there are enough things in motion at work that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The much needed changes and process improvements are commencing and starting to fall into place. And enough external departments are in the know of the challenges we’ve been facing, that they can be a catalyst for implementing the changes as well. For the first time in weeks, I feel some sort of reprieve with the work related stress.
