This will be my new mantra at work. It's all business. I don't care about social interaction with my boss. It's all business. I need to respond professionally all the time, and when I can't, I need to step back until I can.
Though this doesn't stop me from gloating internally when she notes yesterday after a little rant by me about how learning the email newsletter system was taking so much time and how that is why I am not meeting other objectives and her responding that I should have estimated time better, that when she looked at the next iteration and wanted changes to the format I noted to all that I do not have the time for it, alas, because it has already taken longer than I expected and other things have fallen by the wayside.
Ommmmm....

That is a fine mantra that I have used myself on more than one occasion. Stay zen, baby.
Ohhhhh.....lemme know how that works for ya.
Personally, I recite Mary had a little lamb--backwards. Bit of a trick that messes with the thought process and gets me 'off the dime and outta the desert', kwim?
wow! mantras are so 60's. i think i'll go with reciting stuff backwards - that'll freeze me up for awhile and then i won't even remember what i was doing. wait - that won't work very well for work, will it? i'm with laura - stay zen, baby!
Laura, I'm not sure it's going to work...
Mel, see above.
Crazy, maybe I should try the backwards thing.
Or, look for another job.
