I am quiet and not one of those people that likes to be the center of attention. I am happy to hide in the back and be part of the wallpaper. However if you piss me off or I think that I am being unfairly treated, well, then I tend to get out my soapbox, climb up on that and become quite unbearable.
Or I do something rash, like my recent 'conversation' with the customer service of the papers. I cancelled my subscription to the papers just because they pissed about with getting me my log in details for an online subscription. My temper does get the better of me and I am always trying to extricate myself out of stupid situations I put myself into........
My ego is about the size of the island I live on which makes life quite stressful. My recent foray into extricating foot out of mouth or someones rear end is another example of my ego and temper taking over my normal complacent mild mannered self ( I can hear my friends snickering at that description).
I quit my job..... and now have no idea if I want to keep this job or go find something else....
I know there is no ideal job where I go to work and everything goes swimmingly well and I breeze through the day without encountering assholes, dickheads and generally higher management that likes to think that when they say jump we say how high. I know I am paid to do someones dirty work. I know I am paid to just be that rubber stamp that doesn't need to think and just shut up and do it.....
But
I hate doing that. Why hire someone like me and say, come and make changes and help us, then turn around and tell me, but that's how its always been, and we really just have to follow the old way.
So after a week of being pushed around and told to just shut up and do what I am told, I handed in my resignation. that was a couple of weeks ago and now that I have calmed down I wonder if I should just shut up and do the job and feel miserable and angry because I know things can be so much better if only they did think and listen.... or do I at 51, start looking for another job....or perhaps finally go do something of my own......
Decisions........
