Great thread, Liz! I've always been a perfectionist also in certain areas of my life. My job being one of those. It's resulted in a pretty big promotion which should be good but it's not. I'm really, really struggling with it. I have trouble saying no and pushing back and they have buried me in work. I am also a supervisor now....do you know how hard it is to be a Super Codie and complete yearly reviews and complete compensation packages?? It has resulted in problems at home. My RAH has even stated that my job is my addiction. I don't want that! I don't like it! I'm really looking forward to reading the responses.
