I hab a code, so don't lick my desk
“Grow some balls girl!”
This rather paradoxical saying spoken to me just yesterday. I had procrastinated about asking for the rest of the day off to go home and sniffle in peace and quiet and, most importantly, alone-ness right up until the point when the Chief-of-Staff donned his coat, wished me a good day, and left. This left me to wheeze in the office with the intern a little while longer. I told my friend that I had just been about to ask for the rest of the day off when he walked out the door – I did not tell her it was 4:30pm when he left.
Maybe I do need to be more assertive.
