Food for thought

May 20th, 2008 · 8 Comments

Sorry I haven’t been responding to your comments.  I will catch up later this week.  This weekend was really busy, and yesterday, I was chosen for a criminal case, and we started the case yesterday afternoon.

So, I am reading Business Week this morning about a guy who lost his executive position and is now a consultant (just like me).  Here is some advice BW gave him:

“Satisfying work, like a satisfying life, is rarely achieved through a straight upward climb [referring to the corporate ladder].”

    Is it wrong I am jealous? I watch Snapped and American Justice religiously!

    I hope the case is interesting at least. It would suck majorly if it was some boring petty crime.

    Have fun in jury duty. Cause you’re stuck there anyway.

    And I think that quote is very, very accurate.

    Well that’s nice to hear, since my climb has been pretty jagged. ;-)

    Today was literally the hardest day of my life. I had to determine if someone was guilty of manslaughter or criminally negligent homicide. We rendered a verdict. There were no winners. I cried the whole way home. It was awful.

    Going to respond in general to all.

    I guess you guys know how it went from my post from yesterday. ;-)

    Is winning the lottery considered a climb? Cuz that’s what I’d like, in case the Universe is listening…
