fuck... what timing this post is.... i could write a novel.
i've been at my company for 8 years and in IT for 8 years. i've been doing my current position for 4 years. in a department with 100 developers, 20 project managers, 20 quality assurance testers, and 30 or so business analyst... i'm the only one pushing the code out. ive loved being here for so long but recently, its getting gay. they are hiring more and more of everything, but help for me. i have no one here to help educate me, to learn any more that what i already know. and with recent projects.. ive been hating coming into work. i hate my boss... he isnt a manager. he's here for a pay check and not willing to help me understand anything. i dunno.. maybe i should be the one taking the steps to better myself? but with no help or motivation... i dont see a point.
i think the key to enjoying what you do is enjoying the people that do the job with you. ive grown up with these people and they consider me their little sister. i drink and party with them. i share my life with them and them with me. "what happens on tue's, stays at the bar" haha i wouldnt have made it this far without them. but i think it's about that time for me to move on... im not learning anything new.
im going for a decade at safe auto though. atleast that will make me feel good.
