Hanging in there for a while.

Keeping your job is just like keeping a relationship. At first you get excited and probably have chills, your nerves jump up and down, and the passion to satisfy your boss is just overwhelming. Until you get used to the job, surprises start to run low and then suddenly it feels like routine. Then you itch to get out, to meet another new boss, be in another new environment and sometimes offers can be really really enticing. So what do you do? Do you bite it? Or do you let go?

Let's face it, contentment is like drought, sure moving on to the next is probably good at times, but to make a relationship work you gotta have faith in each day, you have to work harder to discover new things to spice it up and you gotta be able to see the beauty in each other in order to get past the temptation.

I think I know better now. Everything starts with good attitude to find something good and to make it work and make it worthwhile. Getting bored at work means I need to be able to find focus, and not distract myself by pretending that everything is perfect. I think I'll hang in here a while and see how persistence can help change me. And maybe next time, when I finally meet someone confident, strong minded and someone who will keep up with me, I'll know better to handle when the time comes when the sizzle unsizzles.
