I had a rather crappy weekend despite the nicer things going on in my life. Work has been the main source of consternation and I’ll save the details for the doctor.
Will I be leaving Apple? I don’t know but I think after 16 years, I feel like I’ve stayed 13 too many given the ungrateful, soul-crushing nature of my work, the economy recovering in Austin and numerous friends not just making more money elsewhere, they’re having more interesting opportunities. Could that sentence run on any further?
Meanwhile, I’ve grown tired of the rhetoric and hypocrisy, especially when certainly lazy and/or unqualified people advance and I’m stuck “training” them. I know it’s the way of the world but it doesn’t mean I have to endure it. The bigger annoyance is the petty excuses. Bowling For Soup sang it best with “High School Never Ends.”
