It's a trap!

Working over this weekend, gave me a glimpse of the mood set for tomorrow onwards...when the most patient person in the company snaps, it made quite a scene.
Got news about a lead engineer speaking his mind today, on a day he'd much rather spend time with his family.

Morale is at its all time low, everybody's hating each other...except our colleagues from UK. They're all done, well-organized and enjoying the rest of the day. Got to love their management, keeping them well-informed.

All arguments we had for the past week leading into the weekend, could have been avoided with 2 simple ways. Follow the plan and keep everyone informed. That's it. How hard can it be to stick to a plan ? Other offices are just chilling out, except us in HQ. It's pathetic.

One engineer already left right before the big event...honestly I feel there's going to be a mass departure in the near future.

I've become a hateful person at work, probably...given how angry I get every single day I leave work. There's no contentment, no feeling of achievement. Just pure hatred, day in, day out. Yes it's that bad. There's nothing to look forward to, colleagues feel burnt-out after work and I found out another friend's leaving Boston for good too...

That being said, I just probably share a very different path and value with the company right now. They've been around for 25 years, nothing's going to change the way things work internally.

On the upside, it's fueling my urge to apply for jobs and look for other opportunities. Sure, job market isn't looking up, but I'm still confident I can get something soon...perseverance, got to stick to it.

Definitely hard to look for a silver lining now, but nevertheless...I sure as heck don't see myself in this company for the long run. It's a wreck inside.

Even the new employees are feeling it already. Welcome, newbies. Welcome.

Oh well, time to watch TV while waiting for Top Gear to download. Lovely!
