So it's been a long time...almost 10 months. I wonder what has happened to Miwashi? Has he managed to secure a new role? Better pay? Higher job prospects?

just never look back
never regret
they refused to give me a leaving cert even after 6 years of effort given to that dump
so that's even more of a reason to just keep looking forward to what the future will bring

For the people who have been following miwashi's saga up till now, and wondered what has happened to him, well, he's at a job in another ministry - one that requires a lot less people-management - perhaps he is happier now, since he has not logged into this site for more than a year?
While the trials and tribulations he related are largely accurate, they only present the story from his perspective:
The job he held while he was at "that grasscutting organization" was never really suitable for him anyway - the differences in his character and that of the rest of his peers were too great. He was good and dazzlingly displayed that expertise in a few fields (to the extent that he was publicly named and praised for his deliverable), but that was not enough to overcome the other requirements of the job - specifically that "can-do" attitude that comes with the multi-disciplinary aspect of jobs at "that grasscutting organization" these days - its definitely a lot more than just grasscutting! Those of you in the government or civil service should know of the "people developer" aspect and the intent to add value to each employee, but when a staff insists on only doing what he or she is good at, and refuses or fails to see the point of being trained for something else, that staff has rather little future relevance in the organization.
He is, at best, a useful tool.
The lesson to be learned here, is that you have to be adaptable, be prepared to be move out of your comfort zone, or step your game up, several notches, if you wish to enjoy success in your career. Otherwise, you have to be really, really discerning in choosing your job, or be a real genius at your specialities and continue to dazzle. If you continue to produce the same things six years after your hire, and attempts to grow your skill set are met with sour and dour unwillingness, your boss will simply move on to someone else more eager, and will take on more.

Oooooh. And who might you be? You seem to know a lot. Probably his former boss or colleague. Or even someone in the HR dept of Miwashi's former grass cutting organization.

Are you someone with a personal vendetta against him? Very unprofessional. That is, if you're a professional at all.
