half full/half empty


before jumping to conclusions, i need to make it clear that i am thankful for my job. i give all credit to God for delivering me from a pretty crazy situation to come to work here (which, i admit, some days are crazy, but doable crazy, not working-for-a-crazy-psychologist-crazy). i get to have lunch with friends on a weekly basis. i have good benefits. we're able to save and pay off debt with me having this job.


all of that to say, i haven't quite figured out what i 'want to be when i grow up,' but i'm slowly, but oh-so-surely, learning what i DON'T want it to include:


1. making copies (do i really have to explain myself here?)


2. scheduling (i'm not a fan of trying to work with various peoples' schedules to find a time for all of them to meet when everyone has the idea that his/her schedule is of utmost importance)


3. calling someone to set up a phone conversation with that someone and another someone (why can't the said person wanting me to make such call just call the person with whom they want a conversation and either talk with them right then or leave a message?)


4. minute-taker of a meeting (i've learned i get way too involved to be a part of any meeting and not be able to provide my two cents as a viable decision maker)


i'm sure there's more...those are the ones that come to mind at the moment. i'll keep you posted.
