I have to say the absolute worst part of the day is not the ride to work. It's not entering the office, or listening to the useless chatter of my co-workers. It's not the hours in a spreadsheet that will go unused, or the time I spend surfing the net for something...anything that's stimulating. No its the long walk down the stairs after I leave.
Its during this walk that I realize I did absolutely nothing productive. Nothing to be proud of. Nothing to earn my paycheck. Its terrible. Some people look busy, and I bet they actually belive they are . Maybe 5% are. I am a realist. I know that 95% of what I do isn't useful. I know my department isn't useful. I also know its a matter of time before the whole lot of use are gone. There was a time when part my day was useful. I actual solved problems and added value. Now mind you the company was still a soul sucking hellhole, but at least I wasn't void of feeling.
The worst part is I am someone who always prided myself on working hard toward a goal. I do have personal goals that I do work hard toward. Its just professionally I could care less.
Until next time.
