i’m having a rough day again. work is kicking my ass and i’m turning into a big baby. i’m the only copywriter we have, i write lots and lots of copy. plus newsletters, tutorials, books — i write most everything that comes out of this company short of personal e-mails, and sometimes i even get roped into doing that.
and really, i’m hard worker, i don’t mind it so much. just sometimes, sometimes i can’t take it all. i can’t just keep giving and giving and givng. sometimes i need some props. i need someone to pat me on the head and say “good job jodi!” “thank you.”
and when i go for so long without getting that, it makes me want to cry. and then it all just tumbles over everyother part of my life where i feel like nobody appreciates me and i don’t matter and nobody sees how good i am or could be if they only noticed.
Good job Jodi.
Thank you.
Maybe it doesn’t work so well if I’m not there to pat you on the head at the same time.
You really need a good pat on the head.
You know I write a bunch of crap no one cares about either, just like you.
You know.
You know it probably doesn’t bother me as much as it does you sometimes.
But I still know.
And I hope that you know what I mean. Because I hope that will make you feel better.
You’re not alone.
You know?
