Fear in the Air

As with many countries around the world, THE company is looking at major capacity cuts. And the region I'm overseeing is worse than others. And things get worse even as we implement deep scalebacks in capacity and the fear is starting to permeate all levels of staff, cascading from the near panic I'm sensing from the upper management. But deep in my gut, I also think that we may be overreacting but the environment is one where we'd rather err on the side of caution.

I'm going into 4 months at my new role but things have become stale again. While I like the comforting routine of the operational aspect (which means I get home on time), I have become bored from how pointless it can be. Actually I'm worried about sinking into depression myself (pun intended). It may be a combination of bad sleep, annoying work and him not being here for me to vent to. So I'm like this tired, grumpy, disilluioned person today. Let's hope for a better tomorrow.
