Cliche, I know, but thank f
ck it's Friday!!! Sad isn't it, that I'm one of the many that absolutely live for my weekends.
WARNING: bit of a moan coming on....
I truly dislike what I do for a living, cannot see the "usefulness" of my profession - human resources / personnel - or whatever else you want to call it. I'm too practical, hate "initiatives" for initiatives sake, which although it does make me rather popular with the managers I tend to support, doesn't always go down too well with the HR Director. Luckily my current HR Director and I do get on, but she's very "passionate" about the job and I really have difficulty dragging up enthusiasm on a daily basis. I know ultimately I am good at what I do, and by nature I will always give 100%, the problem is as I get older, that is becoming more and more difficult. The thought that keeps running through my head is, if we weren't there, would a company really fall apart?? And, my answer is still sadly NO. So, I hear you ask, why am I still doing it; why don't I change career. The simple answer is I really don't know what else I can do plus it pays the bills. Anyway, I don't really like moaning, so I'm going to shut up now!
Weekend is here, I have a long weekend ahead and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm off to visit part of the country I really love and to visit a very special friend. It'll be nice to get away, relax and hopefully I'll come back more inspired.
I've also got a job interview on Monday, she says sheepishly!! I know, having just moaned, I'm revealing that I'm trying to change company but it is located in the part of the world I love, so, wish me luck.
