It’s Been A Long Long Time
Five posts over January, which to me is shocking. Compared to what I had in mind. But the best-laid plans never seem to go as you want them to.
I can go on blogging about the work I do, but that would only bore you, and at the same time depress me a bit. Something yesterday that happened at work (which I’m going to keep personal – very personal) made me realise that there are better things I can do in my working life rather than the work I am doing now (or supposed to be doing).
What I really need is a holiday. And that’s precisely what I’m doing. In 2 1/2 weeks time I am flying out to Spain for 15 days, and then after that I have another full week off (the type of office I work in allows that sort of thing: if you can get the time off by holiday and swapping shifts with your fellow work-mate, then you can).
I think I need it. 2009 was a blur, and something that, based on what I now know of the organisation and the area I used to work for, should not have happened. What is becoming clear is that I am not suited for this type of work. It doesn’t help that the work I was doing was work I absolutely loved. But that’s the usual way. You like doing the work, and someone pulls the rug from under you.
And I moved over to the new business area because I thought the any job is better than no job at all.
But it’s good to get new skills and experiences, innit?
A holiday sounds like a fantastic idea, but the only thing is that once you’ve been off a while you never want to go back!
Adem: That’s a plan. Not thought of that one!
But seriously, it’ll probably make me look round for alternatives because I don’t want to go back!
