Would like to share with you guys a paragraph from passage I came across during my gp lesson..

“What we all hate- from salesgirl to Cabinet Minister- is the loss of control. It is loss of control that decreases your satisfaction, and ultimately, can cause you to jack it in. Sometimes I gaze bleakly at a day or, worse, a series of days, in which every hour is accounted for by meetings and events at which my attendance is compulsory. There is no space to think, return a phone call, deal with the unexpected, explore an idea or talk to a friend. The organization has become your master; your enjoyable work has turned into a restricting job. When the lack of control encroaches on your evenings and weekends, with no compensation gap in your time elsewhere, however much you may love your work, you feel like a rat in a trap. If you have children, the sense of resentment and loss can be too much. What to do?
