I’ve been working for nearly 3 years now at my employer, having days where I haven’t had much to do and having days where there is more. This frustration of not being constantly busy, but still reciving a paycheck really made me see a disconnect between money and productivity. My worth, I felt like since having left school, was tied to money and that productivity means money.

Now with that not really being the case, I’m lead to think if productivity really matters if it doesn’t generate more or less money.

I hate not being productive – it feels as if my time is not being appropriately used. And maybe that is exactly the case – it isn’t and as a result I am not being challenged and am not growing, one could say that I’m becoming less competitvely employable because I’m not growing – but is business and growth the role of an employer or my own?

The solution is to quit of course, but that means a lack of income for a period.

Suggestions are chatting with the employer, keeping myself busy with my own things (such as this blog) or looking for ways to improve the orginisation. The last does not feel like my responsiblity as it is not my orginisation to improve.

This is a first blog test for my website. I decided to bite the bullet and just get a wordpress domain so that I have a little corner of the internet.

Maybe it was a silly financial choice as I don’t have the most money right now but I figured I might as well bite the bullet.

Anyways, welcome! I’m glad that you are able to meet me and I hope we can stay in touch.
