Horrendous time at work…

September 11, 2008 Raman 4 comments

Yeah, I wake up at 6 AM irrespective of the time I sleep. I enjoy sitting in front of my computer and working. I enjoy writing / talking to students who are 100s of miles away from me. I enjoy the feeling that people trust their careers with me. I cherish the fact that I have an opportunity to add value to the lives of a few people. Yes, office is where I love to be and I find it difficult to not be here.

But yes, office is not 4 walls, desks, chairs, work-stations, A/C or coffee machines – I love my office because of the people in it. Without them, the address is as good as any other place. Yes, it would be just another place.

But what if the same people disappoint me? Where do I go then?

Unachievable targets, unrealistic visions, acceptance of underachievement & incapability, nepotism, indiscipline, inability…the list goes on.

People, Processes, Ethics, Philosophy, Thoughts, Duties – everything seem to be variables.

It is unfortunate that the very essence which brought this company so close to my heart has changed. Can I live with this? Or should I move on?
