ugh.

oy, i got started talking about some of the stuff that has pissed me off in other jobs (mostly dealing with impossible managers and conflict and such -- the sort of stuff computerworld puts in their "sharktank" column) and i realized that one of the things that's getting me really edgy about jobhunting is realizing i could end up in a job where that sort of thing is far more common than it has generally been for me.

bleah.

also, wow, there's still some stuff that's happened in the past that still has the power to get me frothingly pissed off. hello unresolved issues.

ugh.

yeah. it's not real portal-to-hell levels of angst. just realizing "wow, i'd still walk across the street rather than share oxygen with that person" and otherwise realizing that things that pissed me off years ago can still piss me off.

mostly because they remind me of *other* things that pissed me off all the way back to whenever because YAY THINGS THAT TRIGGER ME FEELING BAD.

ahhh. the unbroken chain of SUCK.

but yeah, i'm okay. i went and took a shower and now i feel better.

thanks babe.

I completely grok this -- there's often a lot of anger and angst about people when I havent been able to forgive them, or have some sort of resolution with them. Pisses me off 'cause its still me that had to do all the freakin' work,while they were the ones that did wrong by me, you know? Which makes it harder to get thru the forgiveness part.

I've had long convos with good friends aabout this, as well as long convos with good therapists about this, but I'm just not that kind or forgiving in my heart, I guess. :-p It was the big sticking point in therapy for me. (still is!)

anyway, I know what wasnt helpful, but I wanted you to know that I grok what you mean. *hugs*

If there's anybody on the planet who knows what you mean, it's me. But you probably already knew that.
