Canned in heavy syrup

Work is crazy. Super crazy.

I am definitely grateful to be employed. At the same time I thought I’d be further along in my career.

I was hired 4 months out of college as a technical writer. I had a great run there but eventually moved on to 3 other companies because of new contracts. I landed where I am now because of a great pay hike.

I am never utilized and am now rusty.

Of course, now we have major management changes and everyone is basically interviewing for their jobs. Think, the Bobs, from Office Space.

This change pushed me to finally start this blog. I have needed a creative outlet ever since I left college. I need my passion back. I need the inspiration that got me here.

Why do so many professionals get put in a corner far from where they want to be? Is the motivation gone or have they been taught to settle? Or is money the great wizard?

I was always told you can be whatever you want. Is security holding me back?

That was a little heavy :0/ But now I feel better and can get back to the funny part of life. –thanks :)
