Pretty damn miserable.
Not a happy camper. Still.
Went to a work dinner tonight but it was mostly managers since only one colleague turned up. The project manager pulled me aside afterwards and told me that at a state board of education meeting, there were complaints still being made about me. I'm "too forceful". The project manager wants me to "soften" my personality. To be "nicer". To just, in general, change my personality.
This complaint goes quite nicely with the only earlier this year, that I "show my face".
Maybe I should forget about doing my Master's and be a backpacker bum around Asia.
