I let down a friend yesterday. Unintentionally of course but it felt pretty terrible. I cant even remember the last time I let someone down without having some sort of outside influence to blame. This time I was 100% at fault. Although I attempted to patch things up after, I can not, for a moment, shake this guilt ridden feeling. I'm surprised how much this is effecting me and still can not bring myself to listen to the voice mail he left the day before.

Friendships are fragil things. Even the strongest ones might break after repeated occurrences of wear and tear.

sigh...

Managing someone while getting paid the same as them and staying at the same rank as them is already trying enough as it is. On top of it all, the person is slow to pick up things, asks questions that have been asked and answered multiple times previously and generally does not understand that calling someone or walking into someone's cube every 20-30 minutes might not be the best way to do things. Maybe they need to start having some social behavior class requirements in engineering school.

I'll continue my story below later.

Recently at work we've gotten some new hires and interns. I've got to say theres nothing like a fresh college grad to make you feel worn-out/embittered/old and I've only been doing this for less than 3 years. While I'm training them to become the best engineers they can be, it dawned on me that I really have changed a lot in terms of perspective/priorities/preferences ... (ermm ok another word starting with p... cant think of anymore) since my college days as I'm reminded of the times when I used to think and act the same way. I wish I had the same kind of enthusiasm and energy. Maybe I need to take that long vacation I skipped out on after graduation or maybe I just need to go join Dave to do some software... How does one go about becoming less jaded? If you know the answer please let me know. If you tell me to stop pretending that I'm 35, you might be right =)
