This story really exemplifies an aspect of my
job I love: I can’t predict all of the issues
that our partners will throw at me, and I
know that to fix them I have to understand
multiple systems
Reading things like this makes me realize I've got to get out of this business at some point.
That is not a part of the job that I love. That is a part of the job that makes me want to bash my brains out with a rock.
I actually do sort of like that kind of problem-solving, in the abstract, buttttttt in reality I usually need to do it under pressure for unappreciative clients/management who just know that things are taking longer than expected. This is of course a communication challenge, and I am a good communicator in general, but... I'm kind of burned out on it.
- ralfd 6y agoI bet that he really meant "This story really exemplifies an aspect of my job I hate" and won't miss at a future next job. The positive spin was only there because it got on the company blog.
- JohnBooty 6y agoHahaha. I was wondering the same thing. Did he really, truly mean that? Was it sarcasm? Was it something PR asked him to add? Was it something PR added without asking him?
