"Rustling, whistling leaves turning breeze to speech…"
There is some restructuring going on at work.
This means demotion and commotion for many, but it's all good for me and my kind; in fact, it offers the glimmer of a promotion, in time.
Or at least something resembling a career path.
I fell into this job by accident. But you get that when you're not looking where you're going.
I'd had a career. One I'd dreamed of doing since I was 15. But it turns out that even dreams don't always look all that great in the bathroom mirror of reality's nightclub.
I went overseas for a couple of years and was meant to spend that time working out what I wanted to do when I came back.
I came back, but with no answers.
I took a temping job, just to buy myself some more time.
And I'm still here five years later.
It's been OK. I've gained a whole bunch of skills.
Still.
Last night D-Missus asked me what my dream job would be, and I could still offer no answer.
I'm a generalist.
And I don't think winning the lottery can technically be classified as a job.
But then, I was thinking a bit more about it this morning.
I love the outdoors. I love nature. Maybe I should do something with that.
Maybe I should become a naturist…
