Suburban Goddess

After remaining calm, cool & frightening collected at work for a month, one of my employees has quit. But a remarkable thing has happened… my stress level is dropping. By trying to keep a level head, I’ve inadvertently changed the way that I handle certain situations. By trying to keep a level head, I have ACTUALLY KEPT a level head. I thought I would have to fake it, and pretend that I was calm even though everything was chaos inside, but I’m finding that I don’t have to. By not buying into the drama around me, I don’t give people a reason to BE dramatic. And things are getting done. And people are bitching less. And working more! These are some delightful side effects. So, even though there’s a body count, I think it will actually work to my department’s benefit…
