I'm starting to like my work very much. I've recently dipped in photoshop and sigmascan pro, and it is quite exciting to be learning the softwares, or at least feel like I am doing something. The lady who works in the same room as I do doesn't come here often to use the destop, so it almost feels like that I have my own cubicle. Oh. There are so many things that I like about the working life now that I hated before. I think it all comes down to space. At the ophthamology lab I am given a lot of space. Space to think , space to act , independence to work on my own projects. Working at telefund, panera and restaurants are so much different. There is no space that belongs wholly to myself and I felt watched all the time. Of course my mentor still checks up on me and catches me off guard when I am blogging or other. But he doesn't express disapproval. He merely takes it into notice. As long as I do a good job on the things that I am assigned, he doesn't take it against me that I wonder off a little. I love the trust in that system and I really appreciate it. I love it more when I receive compliments. Some people can take you up, give you vision and hope whereas others can take you down and make you question your own abilities. I find that it is much easier to find solace, respect and confirmation in the older generation and adults than people in my own age.
