Ho-Hum

Lately, chats about leaving our respective jobs have become more frequent. We talk about it in bed, in the car, everywhere. Is this a sign that we’re unhappy at work Alfred and I?

I can only speak for myself – it’s not about being happy there, really. Whatever’s happening at work, I either have control over or I don’t. For those I do, I know I can do more if I wanted to. For those I don’t, well, it’s all about perspective. So, no. It’s not about being happy at work.

I just really want to do something else. Maybe some online college classes would kick-start other professional opportunities for me.

But we’re not the type of people who can afford to lose our jobs. So I don’t see either of us quitting anytime soon. How would we ever save up for a wedding if we do? Where would shopping money come from? How could I get him one of these mens titanium bracelets? Oh he’d need a steady paycheck to sustain my lavish lifestyle! (*whatever*!)

And to set the record straight, I love the challenge that work brings. Once I set foot in the office, all is well. I do love doing what I do and all the opportunities we can open for the people we work with. I guess this funky mood just really comes and goes. I know someday when I find my true passion and do it everyday this will still probably happen, from time to time. As I said, it comes and goes. For now, I’ll stick with what I have and continue dreaming and working towards that dream
