Yesterday I was completely stressed to the max. I was given a project at work that had a fast approaching due date, and that has little or no room for error. Basically, I was asked to get a list of all of my clients front line staff because SeaWorld was giving them all free annual passes. Sounds easy right? Not when you have over 80 clients who have any where from 5 to 50 employees each. Getting them to respond in a timely manner is not the easiest thing to do. Then double and triple checking to make sure everyone got a list to me. Calling those that didn't. Then making sure I didn't leave any names off the list. (Try explaining that one!) The worst thing is to have to tell a major client, that "oops, I left you off the list. Sorry, we will get you some next year."
So I guess when my family got home last I wasn't in the best of moods. Vicky and I have been trying very hard to not bring our stress home with us. It had gotten the best of our relationship last year, and we are working hard to control that. I slipped up yesterday, and let that stress get to me. So to my family...I am sorry! I guess we are bound to slip up once in while, but the best thing is that I can recognize it (with the help from my wife) and admit to it. So I pledge to do my best to keep this from happening again...
