When the world around you is silent what do you do?

I work in an environment that has so much resentment and bitterness that no one says anything to each other anymore.

How can you force someone to talk if they are miserable?

I hate working in an environment where No one says anything, and the jokes are at an all time low. The job that I call a career for the moment is really waning. I’ve been complaining about jobs for my entire span of working, but this is bad. I have coworkers that are either within days of no longer working for us (because they have given their 2 weeks notice) and people that just don’t care.

I don’t like micro-management, but I also don’t like NO management, which is what we have. With everyone so relaxed, I can see how crappy this company is getting. I want to see them grow and I want to maintain a stable relationship with the company but it seems that everyone has such a vapid view of the future here, that it’s no longer fun to come to work. I dread sitting at work, because no one cares, and although I have a vision for the future, it’s sad to note that the tendency of human nature to drop to its knees and surrender pride is slowly creeping into the veins of existence here at work.

I maybe the only lighthouse left in a dark ocean of vessels about to leave, or about to show up.

This is sad.

I’m holding on to my laptop, a piece of junk that the company DID NOT provide for me, and I’m doing the best I can when the processor warms up and my wrists are hurting because of the cold environment that I am suppose to call home. Tech workers should be inside the confines of carpeted floors and mega computers with other nerdy people, instead I am surrounded by people that are on the edge of planks set out by the company because of lack of interest or rather lack of enhancement.

If no one cares, and I do, I stay quiet. I’m not going to push my visions on any one.

I’m going to remain a standard…until they fire me. I have talent…and while I’m slow to admit it, I will maintain my best hands for later use, because there is a lot to be done, and a lot to be said…but for now the quiet is comforting, because I don’t have to hear the complaints of complacency.

I like the silence.
