Have spent 8 weeks at my current client. I life is easy I can do the work standing on my head and stress levels are sub zero. I am surrounded by clever guys for a change, so no pressure there.
However everyone is running round screaming how busy they are. They have 50 odd sites around the UK and insist on going to at least 4 of them a week... I am doing my bit although I am trying to keep as low profile as possible as there are several guys trying to get promotions and I dont want to get anywhere near them till they are safe. Not that the atmosphere is catty just that there are some obvious problems in the pipeline (to me anyway) and at least one of the new managers to be owns the blame for an all mighty atomic clusterfsck and I really don't want to be the guy that points at the elephant and screws up his chances...
1) Am I looking at a bunch of great liars that are all as chilled out as me in the back ground?
2) Are these guys really not working as smart as they should? Tasks that I look at and sort out in 5 minutes take them two weeks. Even if I strain to be slow its only going to take a morning...
3) If I am comfortable and happy in my lot do I really want to open this can of worms?
There is always strife... Where is it? Why hasn't it found me yet??
