Reply to comment by ChessieJackson in [Image] Sometimes failure is brought on by oneself. by IanAgate

I believe you and without sarcasm or humor I'm sorry people like that have any sway over your life. It may be just philosophically reframing, but i doubt people who know you or me will judge us as failures by any unfortunate proximity to those people or their damage. The industry I worked in and the specific business were also unfunny jokes. Perhaps you and I succeeded by not playing along with those unfunny punchlines. Here's to those bastards keeping misery to themselves.

Thanks. If I didn't have a passion for my job I wouldn't care. Everyday I work it's like the movie Idiocracy. You'd think after 21 years you'd get numb to it, but I'm not. Every time I think things are going to improve I just end up disappointed. I tried to lead change and that did nothing but paint a target on my back.
