No need for ceremony!

A Different Kind of Green Grass

Today, I really am starting to wonder where is worst. The old job had not a single care for values but gave me so much freedom to just get the job done.

This new one is all about ceremony. While I celebrate the fact that I'm finally in a task where I explore my creative side -- I am really tired by the CC protocol of emails, constant agonizing of tone of the emails to colleagues, hierarchy matters, utter disregard for timelines (guessing games, more like it -- you finish it when I think you should, or in Big Boss' case, when I decide I need it), uptight PAs, and CIA-level secrecy and how you have to be hushed a million zillion times if you're told something. People here speak in code and expect you to read their minds. How can the creative side flourish like that lah I ask you! To those who think working *here is an easy, nurturing environment -- boy, are you wrong.

I'm already a superbly paranoid, hyper sensitive person. Under this congested situation my levels of hypersensitivity and paranoia are off the charts. Perhaps this is a day worse than others, but gosh am I perturbed!

Then again, I have not cried a single time compared to my last *master. I guess that must be a good sign.
