So, a little background: I work for one of the smaller divisions in a bigger corporate company. I've been working this job for about 9 months, and had little issues.

Recently, there's been a lack of communication between one of my managers and their assistant. Projects get posted with information by the assistant, but when I complete the project and send it off for approval, I'm told things are completely incorrect by the manager. It's happened multiple times this month and it's become incredibly frustrating, to the point I dread work entirely most days.

It happened again this morning, and instead of venting to close friends but otherwise keeping it bottled in- I messaged my boss and expressed my concerns and desire to improve things! It gave me so much anxiety to the point I had to take an early lunch just to give myself time to calm down, but he fully understood my frustration and talked with me for a bit about fixing things!

I'm proud of myself for actually speaking up.
