On my last job ...

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by assholes. - Notorious d.e.b.

*sigh* I thought I was past blaming my only bosses for the crappiness that was my last two jobs. Sure, they brought a lot of crap to the table, but I was clinically depressed. I had undiagnosed anemia. It wasn't like I was bringing on my A-game. On the other hand, there is this: they used to refuse to give me work and then scream at me because I wasn't working.

change of perspective

As recently as a week ago, I saw myself as being at the bottom of a large hole that I needed to clambor out of. A few days ago, I thought on my situation again and now I feel that I'm at a fork in the road, which is nice because there's no disadvantage to where I'm at. It's more along the lines of, "I'm taking this other road now."
