Rick said...: Great article. I know that feeling all too well. I've felt it in almost every day job I've ever held.

Each job started out as a new adventure. It was exciting and challenging and I was filled with enthusiasm. Eventually, that would all be ground down and replaced by what I call BARF (bitterness, anger, resentment, and frustration).

I wonder sometimes if I'm too old to "retrain".; January 12, 2008 9:26 AM
Anonymous said...: Oh, Rick, I too have felt the BARF-- every single time, I'd start out with, "Hey, this time it'll be great!" And then... well, you've already said it. There have been times when I've turned down non-writing jobs in industries which fascinate me because I'm terrified of ruining the interest with bad work associations.

I'm so glad you stopped by. You're always welcome here.; January 12, 2008 9:41 AM

That article is...wow. I have no words. That's what I strive toward...and always fail miserably at achieving. You're amazing.
