A Smashing Day at Work
Just over a week into my new demoted position, I was working on my own and was still having problems adjusting to my new group's communication system. So just before lunch, my boss put in an order for me and I got confused. As we tried to resolve what I have done, he got so mad that he smashed a 5,000 dollar computer. I thought this gesture seemed a little extreme. He sent me away and when I came back he had went home for the day. Everyone around me was very supportive when I got back, telling me this wasn't the first time he had done something like this. I spent the rest of the day only thinking about how I didn't want to be there. Once again, my doubts about whether or not I wanted to continue working in an industry that can drive someone to computer smashing were renewed. Despite making a good amount of money for my age, I just don't want to eventually become who I work for. Furthermore, I am not interested in what we do so much so I sometimes zone out in the middle of people talking to me. As a result I am starting to put in some more thought about what I would want to do next.
