So I’ve been on a medical leave of absence for about a month. While on my leave I started medication and it’s helped a TON. I just came back to work and it’s only my 2nd day. I’m excited to work again, I miss my coworkers and my job. But… I’ve snapped on my same coworker both yesterday and today. And I feel bad. I feel like myself again with my meds and I know they’re not going to stop my mood swings and stuff and I know progress isn’t linear. But at home my patience has grown. 

And I didn’t snap at him bad. I just gave a snarky comeback served with attitude. And I feel bad because we’re both supervisors so we need to be good role models, but honestly the situation did piss me off. He’s acting like he knows more/better than me or just assumes I’m doing something that I’m not supposed to. Which I’m not. But he makes rude comments about it in front of all the people we’re supervising. I can explain the situations in greater detail if anyone’s actually interested but, after the moment has passed I feel bad because I just want to be better /:

I feel like he says these things out loud to assert dominance for the other people to take him seriously, because let’s be honest… he’s not that good at his job.
