Looking Up.
After more than 6 months in my job, I have finally come to accept that work is not the end all, be all of life, and that even though things are hard, at the end of the day, it's just a job. It's nothing personal.I swear I would've just up and left before Christmas, but thankfully, I got a really good deal at work so I'm staying! And all things considered, I am in a pretty good position and there's nothing too pressing to make me leave. I've never been in a better financial and professional situation, so why go? Because systems aren't working the way I want them to? Nah. Because I don't get along that well with colleagues? Not good enough. Because it's taking time away from life's little pleasures? Not an excuse.
Two of my former colleagues who came to the new company with me are leaving. They just couldn't handle going to work everyday. One of them cries every day! Which makes me wonder what it is with the job that is that harsh, because I haven't really experienced anything difficult enough to make me shed tears. I'm sure they both have their own very personal reasons.
I know life's a roller coaster ride, so I'm more careful not too be overconfident and think that everything will fall into place. I know one day, a kind will blindside me on an idle Tuesday, and I wouldn't know how to react and what to do. But for now, I'm looking up.
