Thursday, July 14th

So I am going to do a little venting here.  I work in a small office with my direct supervisor and I noticed that while all of my work is for public scrutiny and he will not double check my work for accuracy; most of his work is not open to public scrutiny and I do have to double check his work against mine and one other person's. 
In other words I catch his mistakes in the course of doing my job before his work comes under public scrutiny.  Last week he made a mistake and I did not have time to tell him about it and he in a general way talked about how someone in the department must have "erased" his work.  There are only two people with the passwords, me and him and I did not "erase" any work.  So he made a mistake and didn't want the person he was talking to to realize it. 
Now I don't mind taking the blame for a mistake I didn't make but today I made a mistake with a public document and tomorrow I have to talk to his boss about it.  I am feeling a little frustrated that I have to double check his work for errors but he will not double check my work for errors.

I really don't mind if I get chewed out because I decided two weeks ago I wanted to change to another seva.  The problem is I have not been able to talk to my program manager about my request so I have not said anything to my direct supervisor or his boss.  Which leaves me in a quandary-do I discuss my plans to change sevas with my bosses' boss before talking to the volunteer manager?  Or do I just keep quiet?   I will let you know tomorrow. 

Also I am doing my first energy healing tonight, wish me luck.
