Daniel’s Pilgrimage

I’ve been thinking about my job quite a bit lately. Here is how a normal day goes:

I work on computers, either at the office or on the road. I have a few small, mostly surface conversations throughout the day. I don’t see the same people everyday… most of the time I don’t even see the same people every week.

Then when I get home it goes like this:

I have not had any decent social interaction all day, so I want to hang out with people and talk. Alicia has had nothing all day but hour long conversations with people she sees pretty regularly. She wants time with me, and just some peace. Our desires conflict.

I’ve come to the conclusion that since my social interaction outside of work has slowed down, that it’s highlighted to me that I don’t have any social interaction at work. I’ve been thinking about looking for a different job because of it. I’m gonna talk to my boss about it next week and see what he thinks.
