Creating Boundaries (August 14, 2008)

Now that my job is finally kicking into gear I'm being placed in the uncomfortable position of setting boundaries. It seems that my job description is overflowing to whatever a particular doctor wants it to be. I have people calling me from all over expecting me to 'take over' duties or start new ones so they can have better info. My reports are a little too good apparently. I've had to politely explain that if they want these reports they are more than welcome to create them. Hell, I even set up discussions between different people to do so. Yet this morning I pick up the phone and a doctor thought I did yet another phantom duty. "You mean you don't deal with admissions for EVERYONE?" *sigh* I should be thrilled that they all think I'm so awesome. I should be tickled pink that they think I can take on all these duties. But I'm not... I don't want to seem like I'm not a team player either. I can't wait until there's some sort of direction to go with. You know, a clearish pattern. Hell, I'd even settle for a 'Go that way' response. For now I'll just twirl in circles and pretend I'm awesome.
