Te Dieum redux
Tuesday, April 18th, 2023 02:20 pmWell, I’m in the office and for once there are colleagues from my team here at the same time – not that we’re interacting that much, but it’s nice to have a bit of company.
Being here though, has underlined the fact that the office is a far more boring environment than working from home. It’s not even particularly necessary; there’s nothing I can do here that I can’t do from home without all the travelling time. Still, I suppose it’s a sort of normality. I’ve been working in this place and its predecessors for 37 years, 40 in the CS as a whole. I reckon that in those 40 years I have been bored for about 35. The trouble, I guess, is that I never really knew what I wanted to do for a living, and I still don’t. This isn’t it, but it’s not as if anything else appeals.
Juist stick it out. I’m not in the mood to retire. I like having an income too much.
