Hello my little friend, you do nothing! The following is a prime example of why I greatly dislike working in an office. One of my more annoying co-workers is retiring soon. As such, they�re circulating a �Happy Retirement� card around the unit for everyone to sign. Before I signed it with a very neutral, �Best wishes for your retirement,� I read some of what the others had written. One entry in particular caught my eye. It read, �Although I haven�t known you for very long, I�ve working with you. I�ll remember the time we spent together doing the filing project was particular.� OK. A) This was definitely not meant to be sarcastic. B) Although I realize that this was probably the author�s attempt at personalizing the message, c�mon � the filing project? Really, how enjoyable could that have been? I don�t know, maybe I�m being harsh here but I really can�t stand this type of surface level nicety that seems to permeate the atmosphere here. I�m sure it�s the same at most other organizations. I guess I�m just really down on my job lately and little things are starting to get to me. Possible career ideas I�ve been tossing around:
Ugh I�m seriously in a rut and completely at a loss for what I should do next. Does the fact that I can�t pinpoint a single job that I think I�d enjoy indicate that there�s something very wrong with me? I�m beginning to think so.
