Why don’t I do the things I need to do?
Posted by Major Screw Up in Guilt on Sep 1st, 2010 | 2 commentsI have ****** up so many times at work. The issue is that no one knows the things that I have let slide. I have let certain licenses lapse…licenses where we are currently doing business. When this blows up…I will lose my job..and friends that I have had for 20 years. My problem is – I have had plenty of time to fix the issues…instead I let things keep going wrong…and now it’s too late. What is wrong with me?

The same thing that’s wrong with everyone else who’s been in you position (myself included)… You’ve been at that job way too long, you’re bored out of your mind and lack the ambition to change. You’ve got two choices – let it happen (& kind of screw over your coworkers), or get ambitious and figure out how to climb the corporate ladder. Starting with fixing what you broke. Even if you still get canned, you’ll save your reference.
Either way, it will work itself out and you’ll be better off. Seriously. As long as you remember the “key”. Get ambitious.
You’re sick of your job and you don’t have anything going on in your life or work to motivate you. Watch the movie Office Space, you are Peter Griffin.
I hate that feeling.
Also, energy drinks help me when I feel that way. I think it’s mostly the vitamin B, but when I get to the point where you are I’m usually too lazy to go get some vitamins.
