I was swamped in September, and I thought I'd finally get a break after completing my tasks. However, I was mistaken. I had to take on the workload of two colleagues. One of them has been out for a week due to his children being sick, while the other colleague's absence hasn't been as noticeable – they're often physically present at the office but not fulfilling their responsibilities. Initially, I didn't mind covering for them since I was new to the office and wanted to avoid issues. But last week, we had a pressing task that needed to be submitted the same day, and this colleague suddenly disappeared. I was stressed because they were the only one who could handle that specific task. Under pressure, I ended up discussing the issue with our chiefs, sharing my frustrations about my colleague's performance and workload.
As a result, our chief decided to address the issue with my colleague. I thought I'd finally get some relief, but just then, an office order came in assigning me to a more challenging task. While it's a bit daunting, I'm confident I can handle it, and I'm looking forward to working with my new team. Since this is a temporary assignment for a special task, I'll be busy for a while, but I'll make sure to stay active. My friends and I still plan to go jogging every day after work, so I'll prioritize my physical well-being despite the busy schedule.
