A Tale of Woe

When you’re in a job that makes you unhappy, it can be easy to start thinking about making a move elsewhere. Maybe the work’s not as fun any more, or you’re not advancing when you should be. While there are plenty of good reasons to leave, there’s one that shouldn’t enter your mind: Not liking the people you work with, even if it’s your boss.
It doesn’t seem like something you’re likely to be able to get past. You deal with them every day. But don’t think that you can go to a new job that will be jerk-free.
The jerks of the world follow you around. Remember how there were people in school you didn’t like? And then in college there were people just like them? And then your first job, you get a new set of people, most of whom you like, but some are jerks, too? They are everywhere. What’s more, they move around. You can be in a perfectly swell department, with a great boss and great co-workers, and out of the middle of nowhere – some horrible racist comment or worse! In comes some socially stunted goober that screws it all up. Or who can’t code his way out of a paper sack. Or maybe your boss decides to take off and gets replaced by some micromanager who calls you Imagine working at a worse place. Yes it can get worse. Imagine you are working as a slave at Bosh Auto. Never get paid. Labor board sides against you. Or you have 27 years at Chrysler – a union guy – you come off of disability, 1 year to go for pension. Company screws you.Union screws you – tells you to shove off, Lawyer screws you – instead of the 60 % he bargains down to 40 %. You have to sell you house and van. Bank will not give you a loan as the mortgage, taxes and hydro take all. Wally ” everyone f…. me “!!It’s not that so much that Michael Scott is a terrible boss, but that he’s allowed to keep his job in the face of his egregious shortcomings. Michael has problems, but the company doesn’t care, or doesn’t seem to care. You take pride in your work, but why doesn’t the company show the same pride? Lake Manitoba Narrows Cottage Plots
