ETA: Whenever I feel like it, gosh!

There are few times if any where I don't do something I'm supposed to do and people have to nag me to get me to do it. Usually reminding me once is enough and my guilt and terrific work ethic will push me to complete whatever it is I have to do, before the deadline. Ok, I know I do have a problem with things that don't have a real deadline. But when it's something obvious like a deadline for work that I am aware of and I have a short list of things to complete before a certain date, there's no reason to continue asking me when my "ETA" (does that even make sense in this context?) for completion of a task is. I mean, if there is a deadline for completing the task, isn't that deadline the ETA?

I've been working for NINE years. You'd think I would have some sense of responsibility for what I need to do in my job that people wouldn't have to go around and nag me every so often to make sure I'm doing my job. I actually was called "unprofessional" by a management type because I mocked on a call that maybe I needed to send daily status emails to people so they would know that I'm doing my job. I'm only guessing I struck a soft spot because it's probably the way most of my company works, that unless you send at least one or two long emails a day describing what your status is, people just assume you're blogging all day and watching streamed NetFlix movies.

I'm just tired of being treated like a teenager who hasn't taken out the garbage. If people really knew me, they would know that I get things done. I guess maybe I haven't made my message clear enough. I should probably start sending daily status emails. I'll make it like a newsletter. But I'll probably need someone to Photoshop a cheesy tongue-in-cheek header for it.
