More progress not perfection.
Permalink  

For the past 18 months at the store I work at I've weathered a split shift any time there was one.

This week I said no.

I had to cross the bridge of knowing they were not going to take care of me to get to that one.

I prefer this side of the bridge to the hoping and wanting them to like me one.

Maresie.

Kudos!  You are worth standing up for!  Besides, if we do not, no one else will and we get lost and used.  Taking action that offers you your own self-respect was a shining moment for me in program with regard to boundaries and self-consequences.  This is a milestone to cherish and celebrate feeling good/strong in your choices and resolve.  Congrats, sweetie! biggrin WTG!

I have to work on not letting go of this boundary.  I can get sucked back into people pleasing so easily.

Maresie.
