Burnout Revisited

Another year has passed, and the dreaded sales meeting looms before me. I have a real aversion to attending these meetings, as they have proven to be an excessive waste of time, money, and resources. In the past several years, they have also had the tendency to demoralize the staff, and have caused excessive stress, fear, and loathing. People plan weddings, pregnancies, and major surgery to avoid these meetings if at all possible. As I don't have any major surgery that I can plan in time, I must travel to the meeting later today. The other thing that they like to do is punish anyone who does not live in the same time zone. We west coast people are required to be there a day early, because I can't get a flight in on Sunday that arrives before the deadline. Ok, I'm complaining a bit too much. Yes, it's obvious that it's time for a career change. See ya.
