The office is in disarray. I somehow feel sorry for my boss almost. The other paralegal quit, she landed another job, just hearing her say that to my boss, "The job has better benefits, better pay, medical, and all the other niceties." It's like saying, you don't have that and I need that so, goodbye, see ya.
So now she has to get someone new, train the person, and of course run the risk of losing business in the process. It is like starting over. This girl has been with her for 5 years, dedicated, and just good to her. And she's been good at what she does too, where can you get that these days?
I said, I almost feel sorry for her because I suppose if she did offer those benefits we wouldn't be in the predicament we are in now, but I didn't think there was that much pay to go around, you know. So it's a try to win, but its hard to situation. This whole career thing is like a constant hunt, you have to keep searching for what makes you happy and where you fit in, or your skills can be put to the best use.
I just want to find myself there, somewhere there is no bullshit, no power tussle, no boredom on the job, using my talent and feel "useful" more than "used."
Find yourself there, Anita. Will someone take me?
