‘We’re all bored; we’re all so tired of everything’
I don’t have bad days at work. But I have the occasional weird hour.
I got an email from my pal, chastising me for daring to edit.
Let me be clear. Edit is in my title.
I wrote about this before, of this one giving me something to run that I wrote before. And then some other entity made a bad edit to it.
Well, I made what I thought was a good edit to it (saying where they are based, which was incidentally useful to the next part of the story).
Anyway, today I got a big fat tsk tsk for adding where they are based as they are not actually based there.
OK.
And a big “stop editing their shit.” My words of course.
I said well ok fine but remember that creative/incorrect edit they made that YOU caught?
And I said I’ll remove it on the website.
Email comes back an hour later, “I don’t see it on the website.”
*blink*
I hopefully won’t think about this ever again after I hit publish. But at a time when I’m getting my own performance evaluated, it’s really really hard to keep these hard discussions focused on me when there’s that.
