1) Work still sucks, but at least they recognize that I've been doing the job of 5 people instead of doing the job of 3 people which is the norm at this place. So now they expect me to revamp a process, and make sure that everyone agrees to it. If I was more courageous, I would have indicated that I will only comply if there's a financial incentive for it. I didn't because of item No 2.
2) I'm actively looking for a new job. I had an auspicious start, landing 3 interviews. However, I came to realize why I never liked job searches to begin with. Job interviews seems to be like vanilla dating, whereas you are spending the time playing 20 questions about what the employer is looking for, while trying not to sound condescending or angry, with a statistical probability of nil that you will be asking the right questions. It's alright! I'm actually applying what I've learned to re-vamp my job search and possibly look into some educational endeavours that I could pursue in case the job search yields me nothing.
3) Aside from my job, everything in my life is awesome! A and J are fine. I have wonderful set of friends and my financial austerity period has come to an end.
2014 ended with a line drawn on the sand at work, spending Christmas with J and mom (not together), getting sick, spending New Year's Eve celebrating a hand fasting, and having Dinner and a Movie hosted by my roommate. 2015 is looking good, despite all of the work stuff. Hey, at least I'm working on changing that.
