... today I spent a good portion of the day looking around in admiration at these really smart people I have the privilege to work with. (Well, most of them are really smart, anyway.) It occurred to me that instead of bitching and moaning about my self-imposed weaknesses, I should be grateful and honored that I was asked to participate, and participate to whatever extent I am comfortable and confident.
Then I got a little sad about the thought of leaving because I wouldn't be working with these people anymore.

Your conclusion is RIGHT ON.
ReplyDeleteYes, you may have cool people to work for, but if the job sucks, it still sucks.
