"We sludge through because we have to".

My sentiment to a T yesterday from cubicle land! There was a while there I thought I would simply redundancy-away and become part of the floor. And office chit chat.. don't get me started. My job entails a good balance of crisis and boring; there's hardly a meaningful middle. Job satisfaction is riding distant caboose at this point in life. My small family is worth it, every dreary minute - or most.
