Whork Whining
Mar. 25th, 2003 09:00 pmSo I sat here tonight and decided that I was going to turn the intranet redesign into an exciting project instead of a drudge. It will keep me busy for a while and teach me some good negotiating skills and give me a good chance to make what I started even better. So I mentally signed up.
And then I checked my mail at work and found two notes from one jerk that really put me off on the whole work thing. Thankgod my manager is so excellent and understanding and smart and saavy. I work for her. The end.
I shall not get sucked into the vortex of crap. I shall not. I shall take what I want from the job - the commute, the fun bits, the paycheck and I shall give in return and I shall ignore the rest. Ignore, I say!
And I'm not going to take it out on you either. I shall limit my whining to only those times when it is really really really necessary. And that's not often. I shall not indulge. I can work somewhere else - somewhere with a nice fat commute. So I need to just put salt and pepper on that bullet and bite it or move on.
And that's that.
