Reflections on work
I got into work on Wednesday looking forward to a quiet week. Well, it was certainly that. I was ready to scream with boredom by hometime on Friday.
However, I do have a resolution of sorts for work - get my PRINCE2 qualification and get out of there. Yes, it's expensive, but my colleague and I need it in order to properly carry out the job we're employed to do. If I can get my 'department' into some form of order before I go, so much the better - and it will give me something to talk about in interviews.
The frustrating thing is that my colleague and I COULD be of real value to the organisation - if they knew we were there and what we can provide. But maybe we really are flogging the proverbial dead horse.
But my main concern is not to waste time and nervous energy worrying about it. Even the improvements. If I manage to help the organisation improve itself (despite resistance from all sides) all well and good. If not - I'm not going to stress about it. I have an exit strategy and what the organisation does to itself is outside my concern. I need to find a place that works properly and wants to work properly and wants me to help it to work properly.
So, in terms of work, my tarot reading is looking spot on.
In terms of home... well, we're still at the drawing board. But more on that in another post, I think.
