Suddenly it transpires
Very few people do a job that they enjoy…it’s slightly more realistic to expect to learn a few things from good managers, get the opportunity to be stretched mentally and creatively, meet a few nice people or at least have a little bit of respect/ belief in the organisation that employs you.
With the exception of meeting a few nice people, i enjoy none of the above at my current job. I know it sounds nerdy, but I crave good fair management and to be in a role where i’m actually challenged and not just treading water. I mean, i’ll undoubtedly make a few mistakes but at least I won’t hate 60% of my life and spend my working hours in some kind of glassy eyed glazed over hell.
J says working for yourself is the only way forward…but then how do you learn to manage people? I don’t want to be another shitty boss. Universally everyone moans about their job, but a really bad working life is like a bad relationship…poisonous.
And seriously, working here is making me more stupid…and possibly more melodramatic…maybe…
