A graceful degradation

Jan 07, 2010

How do you react when you were told that you did shit after you have struggled manfully for over an year in a project giving it your best shot?

Feel awful? Feel angry? Feel rebellious? Feel like killing the accuser? Feel like giving up? How about actually smiling through it as if nothing has happened, not reacting to the politiks and loathsome innuendo and gritting your teeth to actually do the ridiculous activity that you were asked of? Well, with a little help from the friends of course.

Sometimes, we find a inner mettle within ourselves that surprises us. We think that we know everything about us, but then we find that we can run that extra mile when the time comes and grow in stature. And we did grow in stature. There are times we think that our work is not fully appreciated and how we are all unhappy at work. All the more surprising that we are able to take all that shit and sift it through and get the job done.

All in all, should we take pride in not reacting to the shit thrown at us? Where is the spirit of going all guns blazing? Is it worth being a Gandhi in the face of vultures? Can't we just a big fuck off and go our own way? Why be a pussy and allow people to knock on our heads and tread on our toes? Have we been reduced to play the role of the peace makers and shit takers because we get paid?

Is this the graceful degradation? Is it worth it?

To see someone walk out with head held high and with integrity and dignity intact, I would say, Yes. It was a bigger 'Fuck off' with a blatant middle finger in the face of the doom mongers.

Plan for the day

Fucking horrible day. Didn't do anything as planned. Missed the Grocery store visit for 2 days in a row. Just need some sunshine tomorrow. It can't get any worse than this, seriously.

Youtube link of the day

Watch it in Youtube

P.S I think this P.S is boring and I'm running out of things to type in this line
