I've come to the conclusion that I don't really like my job. Don't get me wrong I love my coworkers and I like my boss too, it's just the work in general. I'm an accountant and I think I may have chosen the wrong career. I'm just super bored with it. It might just be that I have to get out of public accounting instead of accounting altogether.
The crappy part is, is that it is now the worst timing because we are ttc. I would hate to start a new job and then have to leave right away. So I've decided to just keep this to myself and after I have my first baby I will maybe go back to school or switch jobs. For now, I'm just going to have to suck up the boringness and work through it. It could be way worse.
Sometimes I worry that maybe I'll eventually get bored with any career I choose. I mean even if I was a professional athlete or something really fun, would I get bored of it after doing it for 40+ hours a week for years and years? Who knows. I ran into an old high school teacher a week ago and he asked me what I'm up to and I told him I'm an accountant now, and he was like, "really? I always thought you'd do something more interactive." (sigh) My degree is in sociology maybe I should have been a social worker. Crap.
Maybe it's just the last couple of weeks. I do go through phases where sometimes I like it and then days like these where I totally dislike it. Bah I'm so wishy washy. I wonder if there are people out there who absolutely love their job and can't wait to go to it every morning. I'm jealous of those people.
