the mediator.

i do not dislike my job. in fact, i like it pretty much. my hours are short and (fairly) flexible. i work with some incredible people who have groomed, and allowed me to grow in ways i never thought i could or would.

but there are aspects of it that are so tedious. aspects brought about by the same people who have groomed me.

when i signed on to this job, being mediator between two egos was not part of my job scope. my namecard says i'm in "art management". my contract says i'm an "art manager". so how does mediation come in?

i work very well with either ego. our meetings are always constructive, and work always, ALWAYS gets done. but somehow, with the both of them together, egos collide and work just takes a backseat. most of the time, i'm the mediator between those two. it's tiring. nothing gets done, and everyone comes out feeling drained and unaccomplished.

i've been told that this was not always the case, so honestly, what happened? maybe it's me. i should just leave them alone.

i'm glad the weekend is kind of coming. dor just emailed. she's going to be in singapore this weekend on a business trip. i'm so happy! i haven't seen her since june. with both her and law here at the same time, this weekend is looking pretty damn good. i can't wait.
