I think if I knew other ppl were just as fed up it wouldn't make me feel any better, but at least it's not making you feel any better either. I'm aware that statement doesn't make any sense.

LoL...that sounds frighteningly like middle management speak ;)

I get ya though, I took it in the ole compost bin for years myself. Just find your happy place. The one where you are pulling their eyelids over the backs of their heads and spoonfeeding them back the shite they give you. Of course in my dream I have some ladder climbing cronies doing the deed for me while I sip a nice chianti.

Ingrid, if you're taking it up the rear at work, there's a problem. ;)

Find what you like to do and do it. Sorry to hear you dislike your job so much.

Well, it is part of my job description, so I guess I can't really complain. :o

LOL - I did that once and felt so slimed that I went back to what I enjoy (technical). I took a hit in pay - but I'm much happier and I travel a lot less. :D

I have always told those at the top of the food chain around here, when new titles have been suggested for me...

I'm a technician, not a politician


That has saved me from getting involved in the power games and dealing with the back-stabbers. I do my job well, so the money is good, even without a fancy title in front of my name.

Taking it up the rear end at work? Kinda sounds like fun...

Only my mama always told me to never fish off the company pier!

Reminds of the butcher who backed into his meat grinder and got a little behind in his work....
