New directions (part 2)

I now remember why I believed my friend when he told me that my soon to be ex employer "is the real thing" ... I have this, no small, draw back: I believe people and trust them before I trust myself ... If someone tells something about me, my instinct is to agree with him and later on reach the conclusion whether it's true or false. By the time I reach the conclusion it usually too late to bring back up the subject and talk about it. The funny outcome of this behavior is that people have all kind of misconceptions about me. I don't mind the misconceptions because it gives me some ground to play and keeps my privacy.
As I wrote above: My current employer will soon be my ex employer. I quit my job and now I'm counting the days. I'm trying to do the best job I can and close as many open issues I have on my desk as possible. But it's not easy. Not because I'm counting the days and don't want to be in the office: in many ways I will miss the office, the people and my work. But as much as I liked everything working there was next to impossible. It's the kind of environment that either you have an ego the size of the ozone hole over Antarctica or you don't and end up run around like a mouse on a Ferris wheel. I don't have the first and I don't want to do the latter. Thus the thing left to do is: leave work and find an environment where I will fit more.
