Hi all,
Eletia, as I read your blog I just had to giggle. . . certainly not at you, but at me. I've had sooooo many computer geeks try to work me through home office computers over the years that I've learned a thing or two about working with them. They can sound very condescending sometimes and frustrated that they can't speak anything but techie (language of geeks, LOL).
I've started out before saying. . . OK, I'm not a whiz, but I'm pretty smart. If you'll explain what you want me to do, I'll do it and I like to know why & what I'm doing. This way, I can learn while we're working. Sometimes it works and sometimes I get a smart alec that says, "I don't have time for that!" So, I'll say, cool and I don't have time for your smart mouth. Let's move on and fix this thing, 'cause if it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have a job, right? So if you don't want to help, give me someone who can. But you know, I am a little bit direct, huh? LOL!!!!! Gets me in trouble sometimes.
Best advice I can give you- walk around the block- jog in place- scream in the shower- bitch- do whatever you can do to relieve the stress. Don't bottle it up- otherwise you'll lose it when you least expect it. Hmmmmm. . . ask Blair & Jared about living with Aunt Tressie working from home. hahahahahahahahaha!.
Love ya,
Tress
