You wouldn't know it but I've recently returned to work from a week's break, which was totally awesome because we had our first child free nights together in 2.5 years!! (That's another post, which I'll write later)
This week though has been the week from hell. It's not the clients or colleagues that have been annoying. No, I can safely say that I've got a brilliant team I work with because they are so supportive and a lot of fun. (and no, I'm not sucking up to them. :)) It's when you work with government department who are not helpful to your cause!!! Unfortunately for all in the industry I work in, we have a government (state and federal) that is not interested in building social capital and investing in its people and it shows.
It would be nice if I was able to present a really good proposal to the powers that be and have it actioned and supported by people in power, but no. "Oh we'll just wait and see what comes about, keep your fingers crossed." My fingers are cramping because of the amount of time I spend with them cossed!!! You really can't fix stupid and you can't change people's minds when they think that they're right and you just shouldn't stick your nose in.
