inStarted locking my work laptop at 5 PM sharp
Close it instead, that's the actual lock function. Congrats on taking your time back though.

inMy efficiency award has me debating the night shift supervisor position.
Grabbed a night shift once for the extra pay. Lasted four months before I gave up. Missed my niece's graduation and basically all summer parties. Found myself nodding off at noon and living on coffee. The cash was great but I felt disconnected from everyone. Really weigh those daytime events against the money.

inMy niece's messy baking session taught me patience in the kitchen.
When batter turns to glue, you learn the reason behind the rules, not just the steps.

inJust realized my quick temper with a fellow volunteer cost us a helper
Yeah it's so easy to jump on someone in the moment. I read something once about how public correction just makes people shut down, because it feels like an attack, not help. That really stuck with me. It said when you call someone out in front of others, their brain just goes into defense mode and they can't even hear the useful part of what you're saying. I mean, we've all been on the receiving end of that, right? Makes total sense why someone would just walk away, even if they wanted to help. The hard part is remembering that in the heat of the moment when you're just focused on the task.
