[quote=Anonymous]I’m at a loss as to why professionals who aren’t young/new by any stretch of the imagination make bad choices that create unnecessary stress and then complain about how stressed out they are.

A few examples:

Why would you schedule a vacation in the weeks leading up to our annual event which happens at the same time each year?

Why would you schedule a big program/multi day intense meeting/whatever the week before performance evaluations must be completed for your team?

Why would you opt to work remotely the week leading up to a big event when you know someone needs to make copies, signs, etc. and stuff folders, bags, etc.?

Why do you partner with outside orgs that consistently drop balls resulting in serious issues?

Why do you continue to do certain things a certain way despite disastrous results?

Why do you think it’s wise to tell everyone how busy you are and how stressed out you are…including your peers and higher ups who are clearly busier than you are?

Why do you think it’s smart to tell people you are taking a break from email because it’s too overwhelming, and when asked by colleagues what that means you say, “Don’t email me, because I’m not going to read it. If you really need my help, then text me to *ask* if I am willing to help.”
