the one where i feel like a failure
05/14/04 ~ 7:36 a.m.
so, you know that david got a huge promotion, from customer service rep to assistant manager. he's now the boss to people who were his boss before, because he skipped the supervisor position. yesterday was his first day of training and being a manager.
it went well except for one thing: people are making fun of him for drinking the lemonade mix and he can't command respect from his employees that way.
when i got home from physical therapy, he confronted me with this. he was fully aware that we are in this together, and that if he quit, i wouldn't continue on without him. so he wanted to discuss it with me.
i see his concerns, and right now, his new job is much more important than a fast. so we quit doing it. 2 days without eating is pretty remarkable in itself, i think. i could have gone longer, i wasn't craving food so much and the drink fought the hunger pains. i wan't super low on energy, i was still thinking clearly, all that stuff.
we had soup and white rice for dinner and it didn't freak out our systems. i plan on getting a smoothie this morning (and i better leave NOW to get it!) and having soup for lunch. we'll be back to normal by then.
i sort of feel like a failure (i'm not excited to tell my coworker we quit) but i feel the reason is legit. plus, if we were totally crazy and it was unhealthy, at least we only did it for 2 days, right?
