Commitment Values...




I had a refreshing weekend. 

However, this is not without spending every last bit of money I have entertaining myself. I realized I haven't done dinner and a movie in a long tme, especially a very late, later showing. I got home groggily at 12:45 am. Felt good as if I had been at some nightclub shaking my booty.

I thought about work a lot. I thought about my career goals and where it would lead me. I read this interesting article about job seekers in a recovering economy. And then, how crucial it is for employers to establish commitment values with their workers especially in the early stages, first month. I just went A-HA! Me. Also, it said that if the employers don't, workers would not have any vested interest in the company and then, feel the need to go elsewhere where their commitment would be encouraged. They've shattered mine. They did that when they asked me not to sign the letters. 
"Why do they always want their name on something?" 

Ouch, okay then.

Maybe I am just trying to justify where this decision is coming from inside me and what I will tell any recruiter (if I shall be fortunate enough to get a callback at all) when they ask me why.

"They didn't encourage me in my tasks and so my commitment values just depreciated with each growing month."

I should have written that stuff down.
