Stress relief...maybe?

** Warning - This is a pretty boring post! **

For those of you that don't know already, work's been stressing me out big time. I am accountable to 4 different bosses within the company and the problem is that each of them don't know what the others have asked me to do for them at any one time. What this means is I could have several jobs going on at once. I have recently found myself in this predicament and have been feeling totally bogged down. I felt like I was going to have a nervous breakdown...hehe

Today I walked straight into work and went straight to the CEO's office. I explained to him what's going on and he was really understanding. He said to me that my expectations upon myself are too high and that I need to learn to tell people when I can't manage before I burn out. After that he called a meeting with all the bosses that I'm involved with and they came to a solution. Thank goodness!

So now what's happened is that any work for me has to go through one boss only and he gives me instruction as to what tasks need to be done. This way I don't get left floundering with heaps of work to do not knowing where to begin. I probably should have said something sooner before I made myself so stressed out..but anyway, lesson learned! Time to swallow my pride and realise that I am only human after all! Yay! I can breath again!

Hopefully things ease off over the next few days and I can learn to enjoy work again!
