failure to communicate

oh yeah.

failure to communicate. the term is so weighted; layered in meanings we attach as we go along thru life. you hope, you anticipate, you dream ... and then you hit a failure to communicate. so you go back over things, review things, examine them from every angle you can think of. nope. still there. failure to communicate. know why?

because in order to have communication, there has to be more than just you. communication takes effort. and when the other person just doesn't care about it, well ... yeah. so there you have it. chalk up another one on the great board of life and what else can you do, but move on? because clearly, there is no flow of communication. and when it doesn't flow, its just not communication, is it.

one of THOSE moments

thought about it long and hard today as i spent the day cleaning up other ppl's messes. yanno, sometimes i wonder why i stay there.

the boss probably wonders the same thing.

its become kind of obvious to everyone that i'm over educated. over qualified. a square peg that somehow got pushed into a triangular hole or something. ppl keep asking why i am where i am. why i'm not doing the things i so obviously should be doing ... like puters. like teaching. like almost anything that they know they don't have to ability to do.

so why am i there? honestly?

i don't know.

it sure as hell isn't for the fun.
