Today has been a day of reflection. Weird shit happened at work today, pointless drama. Drama that I dabbled in when I was 12. You know the 'how come I wasn't invited to your party? That is not fair' kind of drama. Won't go into much depth here...its a pointless topic. I avoid drama. Period. But it got me thinking, this place of work has been nothing but drama and walking on eggshells. Whatever you say can come back to bite you in the butt in a heartbeat or someone takes offense to how you said something that was never meant to be taken that way. People get rather egotistical and selfish when they are given more responsibility than someone else and the rest get jealous. (Needless to say I sometimes fall into that latter category.) I do feel I work my butt off and get little to no recognition or praise. Not that I'm necessarily seeking it, but when others get praise it needs to be evenly distributed amongst the coworkers. Generally speaking, I get along with most people, once I've gotten to know them. In all of my years of working, I have never had the drama and issues that I have had here. Which brings me to this point: if it no longer makes you happy or serves a greater purpose, and it is only stressing you out and making your life miserable, it is time to move on.
I know I have been down this road before...I've mentioned the job searching, but a person can only take so many rejections and no interviews before they give up and tough it out. But right now, this bullshit drama and the constant stress is finally coming to a head and its the drive to get me out.
These 2 quotes couldn't be more true. Love what you do and what makes you happy. Period.
Peace&Love
