Michelangelo sibyl from the Sistine Chapel

 

may thunder

When I got home from work this morning, I just wanted to forget about everything. The tension at work has been so high ever since we had that meeting yesterday. Some people are happy about what was said, but others are getting more and more frustrated. For me I have no idea what to expect in the coming months. What I do know is that I have to do what is best for me as cliche as that might sound.

I can understand the need to want to learn new technology and keep current, but at the same time I want to be able to enjoy life. The way that I see it is that a person in their twenties is almost obsessed with his or her job. Then as they get older and start a family they have to keep said job whether or not they truly like it just to support their family.

I know that this is a gross oversimplification of things, but sometimes that is exactly how the workforce appears to me. People are either climbing as fast as they possibly can or they are just trying to maintain the status quo, because they have to for the sake of their family. Any real middle ground seems to get lost.

...

Hail fell this morning before the storms of the past two days finally start to subside.
