Maybe the social life is the problem eh? It's been so long since I've had much of one to speak (write) of. Perhaps if I had no social life or a terrible one, I would relish the opportunity to come to work. Doubtful, but it was worth a shot.

Alas, the social life is much like the work life, in that if I didn't have people around me scheduling my time and motivating me to go do things, my leisure time would be much more sedate. Similarly, with no one in the office to guide me, I lack the motivation to push forward. Just one of the many things that I have come to realize about myself.

I suppose, what I really should do is go back to the drawing board with respect to job opportunities. In the old days, my father would always make me come up with a pros and cons list and make my decisions accordingly. However, I seem to be too busy bitching about things and less time trying to fix or change them. (There's a true woman for you). I keep waiting for the ideal job to drop from the sky or a career advisor to pop into my life and say... you should be a _______________________; and then tell me how to do it. I suppose I'm supposed to be the one responsible for doing all that!Sheesh!

Sometimes I feel that no matter what job I take, I will be disappointed. I don't suppose anymore there is such a thing as the perfect job.

If I were a wise man, I'd help to guide you. As I am not, I can only offer my best wishes in your search for vocational nirvana.
