I'm a respected medical personnel in charge of lab testing for Nursing at 5 major hospitals in a large metropolitan area. Although most of my Bipolar symptoms are pretty stable I still have an issue at times of talking before I think. Then there are the consequences to me saying something I probably shouldn't have in front of some of the nursing administration. Unfortunately for me most of the time, I'm a very direct person, many times that gets me in trouble.

I can't change today. Guess I need to work harder on being more "political". The only plus side is my current boss is much more forgiving than my former director. He did voice his concerns and suggested I come across as more of a "team player". But was very nice about it considering that they gave him such a hard time.

Well, tomorrow is another day. I'll try to do better to keep my mouth shut. Something I need to remember to do every day.
