Today I was told that one of my colleagues thinks that I am becoming arrogant. Leaving aside the fact that this person has been called out for his arrogant behaviour a lot recently, it depresses me.

Arrogance has been my dawnfall when I was working in London. I have finally found a place where I can see myself spending time and now I am starting to get again a reputation for arrogance. I am a perfectionist and a professional andI have confidence. For the first time in 3 years I feel as if I have a management that I can trust and I get an arrogant reputation.

I don't want that. I need to be more humble, but I don't know how. That little confidence I had gained it's shattered. I need to start again and to do it seriously. Although I am not sure how.

Thank goddes I am off tomorrow. I am on shift with that colleague on sunday. I'll start then. If I understand what I did wrong.

I've been remiss in commenting, but I've been keeping up with your entries. *huggles you tightly* I don't think you're arrogant. I think you're good at your job and competent and people (*mutters*men*mutters*) are threatened by that.

Be proud of yourself.

Thank you. I am gonna try to talk to him, but he's the kind of person that tends to shut down when things do not go his way, so it's gonna be tricky.

I am following you too hon. How's the job hunting coming?

Catching up on comments I didn't reply to today.
It's going. Hopefully moving in the right direction. I'm truly hoping for good news this week.
