The new job
Some days I feel like this. Okay, no I don't. But I want to use it somehow as a segway for writing about my new job. For the first time in my life, I am a supervisor. Rather than just going to work and being concerned with me and my job, I need to be concerned with other people and their jobs. It is extremely weird being new because I am largely being trained by the very people I am supervising. Some dynamics can be very challenging. I'm realizing how much I have to learn about building a team and giving feedback. Please pray or wish me luck, depending on your particular theological bent.

You are in my prayers. Being that you are the supervisor, have you thought of talking to these people individually to see "where they are at"? If such is permitted, maybe that could help get rid of some of the negative vibes and iron out some issues.
I have been doing that, but misunderstandings arise, and often they are on my shoulders because I am still learning the office culture and the ways that things are done. It's a process.
