Finished the fifth and sixth books in the “old mans war” series. I am now starting “dungeon crawler Carl” by Matt Dinniman. I had it on my ereader, I don’t know why or when I put it there. So I’m going in blind, will give an update how it went next week!
TLDR: They didn’t clash, but merely shared their insights, which were actually quite similar.
I’ve been working with my current company for 6 years, company before this one 11 years, before that one 8 years (and before that some shorter terms). These last two times I’ve switched because I didn’t like the way the company was managed anymore (and where my job was going because of that), coworkers were great and pay was fine both times. I found it refreshing to start somewhere new both times, you get to reposition yourself because you have no history in the company and you can view the “company politics” from some distance. Based on my experience I would always advice to look for a new job when in doubt.
I finished the third and fourth book in John Scalzi’s “old man’s war” series. Currently on the fifth (out of six), so I expect to be looking for something else in the following week. I probably won’t be reading a lot this weekend due to carnival though.
The books in “old man’s war” are overall a good read, I liked the third book a little less (the fourth one made up for this), and I’m also not sold on the fifth one yet. Depending on my mood after reading the sixth book I’ll probably look into other works by Scalzi. I might also check out some SF books by Charles Stross, I did enjoy “the laundry files” a lot.
It’s not where, if money was no object, I would be on holiday semi-permanent.
