Quit it!

Has anyone ever quit a job?

Not just quitting for the sake of moving into another position, or returning to school...but quitting because you can't take it anymore, it is sucking all pleasure in life or work right out of you, and no amount of money on this earth will make one more minute worth it?

Hmmm. Well, I recently dropped myself from the on-call list of one particular department at one particular branch for this reason. The environment and the supervisor were making me re-think my entire career choice, which is a terrible thing because 99% of the time I truly love my work, even the dull bits.

Unfortunately, I fired off a hot little email - I lost my head completely... Always let the resignation letter percolate overnight!

Well, today my blog has been bombed with comments from some hot-headed reader- It isn't a big deal because I approve all comments. I allowed the comment on my posting, "Knock Knock Knock" even though the writer takes a rather aggressive stance towards me--ie. "Well let me tell you my lithe hussey, though I am not quite the tender young (and oh so special) spring chicken you portray yourself as..." But enough is enough, 4 other comments so far this afternoon! All of them are pretty harsh towards me and my inaptitude with Dewey.

The long and short of it is, that I am beginning to wonder if this is my OLD BOSS posting comments?

Tssk tssk, I know that blogs can become very self-indulgent, but that's the very nature of the beast. Certainly, I will be a little more careful with my postings, another bit of self-censorship enters the equation, and if this continues tomorrow I'm afraid comment posting will have to cease and this will simply become the one-way-ramblings of the lithe librarian....
