Well...um...Isn't that the way the world works?

Just management

Right, Dag. That's what I meant.

I shovel shit at an asshat farm.

Lots of people who claim to know what to do - but not a soul that knows how to do it.

Just like the old saying goes...

Those who can, do.
Those who can't, manage.

Right now, things are kinda weird at work. Our department just expanded from 4 to 11 people. A lot of time has been going to preparing training materials and training the newbies, but the daily work is still coming in. I love my boss, but she's a relative newbie herself (she's only been with the company since Christmas week). And I don't trust her boss (to whom I directly reported for 3 months) at all.

Admittedly, the last month or so has been rather stressful. But I think I finally started breaking out of my funk yesterday. I hope so...I hate it when I wake up in the morning and I have that feeling of dread because I have to go to work.

You mean there's another way???

Until recently, I was either neutral or stoked about going to work. As a whole, I like my job...almost love it. It pays very well and I enjoy what I do.

This morning, I woke up neutral for the first time in a few weeks...that's a good thing.

That's happened to me recently as well...

I chalk it up to becoming immune to the bullshit.

Becoming immune to the bullshit is sad but necessary, in most cases. What bothers me is the neverending parade of unpleasant surprises that go beyond the bullshit.
