فاصله

دم استخر که رفتم ديدم يک گوشه روی يک صندلی نشسته. سلام کردم و پیشش نشسنم. يکی ازاستکانها رو جلوم گذاشت. گفت واسه تو ریختم. دوست داشتی بخور. يک پک محکم به سیگار برگش زد. و یک ساعت مدام حرف زد. از همه چيز جز سیاست و مذهب. منم انگار لال مونی گرفته بودم، فقط گاهی يک چیزی می گفتم که متوجه بشه حرفهاش را می فهمم و دوست دارم.
روز بعد وسط جلسه کیفش را انداخت روی دوشش و رفت که به پروازش برسه. هنوز احساس می کنم که خيلی باهام فاصله داره ولی خيلی باحاله.

ای باغبان! ای باغبان! در ما چه در پیچیده ای
گر برده ایم انگور تو، تو برده ای انبان ما

--مولانا

همين. یعنی فعلا همین.

Professional

My professional life is always suppressed by my social skills. I rarely relate to people professionaly, I ususally make friends and then work with them. The possitive side is obvious, I am working in my comfort zone. No competition, not enough! aggretion and a perfect work environment. No complain, I've been always paid to walk on the edge of technology. But, is it enough? What happens to my profession down the road? Am I always want to work in window-less offices as a ... ... ... Design Engineer?
...
The last time that my social and professional sides were fighting was when I was interviewing a candidate much older than myself. I was wondering if I have to chat with him and let him talk about his experiences and his life or hammer him with all technical questions to write a neat and professional evaluation sheet. What if he gets offended? What if he gets offended and then get hired as my coleague? I still get blame from my old students because I was serious when I was grading their homeworks. May be it is time to let my professional side plays a little bit. If the social side get suppressed he can always write in this weblog?
