So remember last Tuesday when I was so excited to return to teleworking on Tuesdays. Well my big boss didn’t approve the request, she said wants “my regular presence” which is ABSOLUTE HORSESHIT. Also, that reason is the opposite of having a telework policy, which JUST was approved university-wide last fall.
My office moved locations last month and it’s evening quieter now over here, plus this is my “off season.” My boss told me last week and I was visually upset. He said he’ll approve “one-off” teleworking, but still. We talked about my self-care and desire to regain balance, it’s so infuriating.
I’m going to try and make a play for rotating telework days and see if the big boss will approve that. From a scheduling standpoint, it’s just easier to always schedule meetings around a regular telework day.
So I’m in the office today, which isn’t so terrible since we were off yesterday and I had an off-site retreat on Friday. However being deprived something that worked well in the spring and that I requested for self-care and balance is just ugh…I still really don’t have words. Talk about not feeling valued…
