Everything Old Is New Again
Sometimes the most mundane job on earth suddenly becomes everything.
We’ve probably all had a position where we thought-why am I here? I’m underpaid, under appreciated, doing this in my sleep, I don’t really even like who I see day in and day out. Why, oh why do I stay? Then you get a “dream” job, you quit and move on.
Trouble is, you get to the “dream” place and find out-EGADS, what have I done? The daily work load is beyond the capabilities of a mere human, you have to sit in a cubicle the size of an RV bathroom for 11 or more hours in a day and the only living breathing soul you ever see is during your very infrequent bathroom breaks! Lunch-what’s lunch? Dinner with one’s significant other-not happening.
