Volunteer

I went to a volunteer project for work this morning. Normally these types of functions are very positive and upbeat. But the prevailing attitude of the corporate culture interfered with any positive moments. " I have been here since 6am", "I did my part", "She needs to get dirty, she didnt do anything". This negative crap follows them away from the office into the woods to a beautiful setting on the Chesapeake Bay. I mean really! Pathetic.

Anyways, it is a beautiful day and I feel good about volunteering. I need to spend more time away from the city in a more natural surrounding- it really is peaceful (well, for me and not my jaded co-workers) .

My supervisor wasn't there today- I think he was at another site. We have bonded a little bit, I cant decide what i really think of him. Sometimes I think he is a pretty cool guy but sometimes, like my earlier posts, I think he is just full of it. Maybe he is a little both. Maybe he is in a bad situation and I have seen an unflattering side of him. I know that I am not the most gracious of human beings when I am under pressure. Who knows, maybe he is just growing on me.

The horses run today- gotta check out the race at 6pm while I work on some homework. Remind me again, why do I really want my MBA?
