When work gets you down...

For me there is a very systematic approach to coping when work just sucks. This week I was fortunate enough to be put in some akward situations and be yelled at by a really sucky industry type. After a blow up phone call and receipt of a seven paragraph, un needed, completely verbose email from the jerk off who ripped me a new one on the phone ... I went completely mad. I was so angry I could hardly sleep.

So far my coping mechanism as involved lots of avoidance of the issue. I have moped and watched lots of television, tried to focus my energy on more progressive projects (school), prayed, read funny magazines, and played with my dogs alot. Still when i get home from work, i am still mad and find it difficult to really turn off the pissy work attitude. The akward project that is challenging my sanity will last 8 more weeks.

So what's a girl to do? As i have grown older, i have found my anger and self torment harder and harder to control. Any suggestions? Good books? A therapist?

HELP

My brief hiatus

Sorry for being so out of my blogging loop. This summer has been jam packed with work and school. Hopefully, if all goes well, the school part will end in August.... Yahoo!

I am on the hunt for a new work wardrobe. Following the philosophy of "dressing for the job you want instead of the job you have" I am trying to bring my dresscode up a couple of notches. At the end of summer I will be doing an academic presentation as well as a few fundraising visits. Anyone got any suggestions for where a girl can find a trendy "summer weight" suit for a size 14+? Don't say Lane Bryant please......
