totally botched his last post. wonder if I would be happier with a LESS "real job" kind of job.

where you percieve the stress in your current job coming from? Customers? Quotas?

Perhaps you would be happier with a *different type* of "real job".

yeah, you know, something less... jewish? ; )

I think "real" is probably best defined as "something that feels like part of your life, rather than something that gets in the way"

Morskittar is onto something there.
Morskittar
you've got something with the peon idea too.

im just not happy with the industry im in. its kinda sad to say but i have serious ethical qualms about our sales methods.
Morskittar
that'll kill a job pretty quickly
Morskittar
that said, I have huge issues with my current employer. But that's why my job revolves around trying to *change* things from the inside.

i also have issues with some of the branches policies, which differ immensely from the branch i was at in Seattle.
Morskittar
any opportunities to change them in a constructive way?
gojutremere
not. my opinions and suggestions have been ignored or insulted.
Morskittar
any opportunities to change them in a subversive or non-constructive way?
gojutremere
if you mean through ratting out my superiors to their superiors? If so then yes. But theres no way to avoid that coming back on me.
Morskittar
naa, nothing so nefarious
Morskittar
more stuff like setting up long term "told you so" visibility
gojutremere
he has done a pretty good job of this.
Morskittar
I find that to be fun, but it can take a long time
