A year after a former employer was acquired and a merger is complete, I have realized that these are just not “my people”. They do not do anything that I am proud of.
They do not “make” anything, only manipulate information. The subject matter bores me. My mind goes to a beach on an island or a hiking trail in the mountain within the first 30 seconds of every meeting.
I disagree with leaders in their approach in some aspects of business.
I am now behind the scenes, and client contact is what I always enjoyed, but the types of positions available are not what I was accustomed to in my former life.
I hate my work environment. Everybody works in the dark. It’s a dungeon and they seem to like it.
Sh*t rolls downhill, and it all collects in my department.
