Stepping Down

I have just spent the last month being the boss here at work. I quite enjoyed the responsibility and the sense of achievement on getting things done. Now that by boss is back from leave I have to step down and play the role of techie again.

Now I feel like I have nothing to do. There wasn't even a formal handover, update or anything of the like. He's just in command now, no questions asked. I have no authority over anything as of this morning.

It's a bit disappointing. I felt like I was doing a good job but I don't feel like I will be thanked for it or shown any recognition.

Are these the signs that tell me its time to move on? Am I taken for granted here? Who knows. I'm too comfortable. I know that much. Living close to work makes it too easy. Makes me complacent. Yet who wouldn't want the cushy life at work? As long a they look after me why would anyone want anymore?

I don't know. Do you?

My family

This is the reason for getting a new camera! What a difference it makes. We've just recently decided that the quality of the pictures coming out of our video camera just don't cut the mustard. Thus we've gotten ourselves a nice new digital SLR and look at the results!

I think capturing the rapid changes in my little son was a very good reason for our purchase. Its something you really wouldn't want to miss. The quality is such a step up from the video camera that the effect is amazing.

I'm looking forward to taking thousands of my sons development. I might not have another son so I better catching it now.
