I'm back from school and back at work and the "Oh-gosh-what-was-I-thinking" is starting to sink in when I look at my school work, but that'll (hopefully) pass once I get a little more organized and clear the two final things that I just knew would be no problem at all to get finished during February...started. Yeah, got to start them both before I can finish them. What's the line about the best laid plans?
In the meantime, the job interviewing is actually kicking up and I have to ask - is it an ok thing to not choose a job simply because someone you used to work with (and spent a lot of time cleaning up after their incompetence) is on the new team? Cause I think one of them may come down to that. And what words, exactly, do you use for that - I'm leaning toward "Not a good fit".
And with that, I'm going to try and knock off one of those tasks and maybe get started on the organization thing. Or do laundry. Cause, well, clean clothes are always a good idea.

Hang in there, Beth!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with you on not a good fit. It's the people you have to work with, not the job.
I also agree - not a good fit. You have to choose a job you would be happy with otherwise what is the point in switching...
ReplyDelete"Or do laundry."
ReplyDeleteI'd suggest cleaning out your silverware drawer. This is something I always try to do just before starting an important project or heading into a big deadline. And if you need more tips in procrastinating, let me know. ;-)
Oooh...you know, Gwynne, I was actually noticing last night that it's time to pull all the silverware out and run the little slotted thingy through the dishwasher again. So tonight I'll get right on that -- with the laundry. And maybe some dusting or something. :) I'm always open for other procrastination tips, it's a little early for Christmas shopping.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle & Rach - I do tend to agree the people are more critical than the actual work.
