Organized :-(

I don't usually make posts like this, but indulge me. . . . . . .

So, my school staff did boosters (which are like notes to help others feel better) for each other. So each staff member had a booster signed with messages from other staff members. When I got mine the other day, the majority of the things said were "You're so organized!" I know it is supposed to make me feel better and that people really meant that as a compliment, but I thought, "Really? Is that the best compliment you could come up with? Is that the best you know of me?" I shouldn't be upset, but I have worked there for 3 years now and that is all you know about me? It felt more like others were writing the cover letter or my resume. "I have great organizational and filing skills." Not to mention that if any of these people actually knew me at all, they would know that my room and my desk at school is always a mess. I haven't even unpacked yet from my trip to Washington (which I got home from 3 weeks ago). But, as these "boosters" proved - hardly anyone at my work actually knows who I am.

I would like to say thank you to the four people who didn't tell me I was organized.

On a side note. It is really hurtful when you think you are friends with someone and then you find out that you really aren't. I guess I've been a fool for 3 years as well as "organized."

Thank you for listening to my ranting. I'm sure I'll get over this.
