Jan. 8th, 2014 11:30 pmThe company I work for is Going Places. Seriously. They are.
Today we got into a side discussion about employment futures and how they need X techs and Y techs and whatnot. And I asked myself The Question: "Could I make a career here?"
It wasn't the answer I was expecting. But, to be honest, there precidense for that answer. Of all the jobs I've had, I've only ever answered "Yes" to two jobs. Dell and Nintendo. Dell I royally f'ed up. Nintendo and I just couldn't see eye to eye on the job situation.
So when I asked if I could make a career here, the immediate reply was "Why Bother?"
And to be honest, I can't say Yes or No thinking about it any deeper. Say No and you cut off any real future with the place. Say Yes and you set yourself up for a Nintendo-sized disappointment if it doesn't happen. I'd like to plan for my future, but I've never been stable enough to plan much farther than a half year or so out.
Meh. Just keep moving forward. What will be will be.
