Been dealing with a nonstop week of shit rolling downhill and shit rolling up pipes. Caught in a dispute between two nursing managers and a director after one of the managers just binned a fuck ton of active study equipment with the director trying to pin this on me for not stopping them instead of the manager not asking before binning. They're trying to minimise the fallout caused by having to explain to pharmaceutical giants why we need new kits without looking like unprofessional clowns, unfortunately we are currently unprofessional clowns. I don't have any liability in any sense, but careers will be bricked, and everyone involved were colleagues I supported and they supported me so these burned bridges will basically flatline our careers here. And after four catastrophic pipe blockages, two of which resulted in site closures, the ultra overlord boss paid for some specialists to investigate with an endoscope and the conclusion they've come to is that it was a deliberate act of sabotage using a compacted ball of hand dry towels. This surprises me; in surveys the majority of staff are thinking of leaving but to go after the pipes is a shit move. Luckily I already booked a month of annual leave off so in a short while I won't have to deal with this anymore. Yet I had gone from one week of constant success where it was looking like I would be able to gun for a leadership position to one week of constant shit where the studies I was going to lead shut down, my name got dragged into a war I had nothing to do with against people I supported in the last round of job cuts, and there is something rotten in the state of the pipes as a sussy saboteur lurks amongst us
