Laughters and guilt
Sunday, April 24th, 2011Met two ex-colleagues, which are now friends, yesterday for evening coffee. Comically we told each others how bad each of our work situations turned out to be. All of us are having problems with bosses. 
We worked closely during our time in investment bank. One of them is INTJ. The other one is ISFJ. And me, an INTP. Strangely, I think I worked particularly well with the INTJ, who is logical, straight forward, responsible and the no-nonsense type. Her discipline is top notch. I always take her as my role model in this area.
It is interesting to hear her talking about how she enjoys power at work (well, NT always enjoy power, particularly xNTJ) and fought with some office assholes.
We ended up talking about what we want to do in the future. When I told them my “artistic pursuit” outside working hours, both of them had a real good laugh and sympathetically assured me that what I want to do can happen.
Well, I’d never doubt that.

I saw a comment in fb from an old friend. I found myself still carrying the guilt toward the person. In my teenage years, I was (may be still “am”) too casual in my words and actions and was oblivious about the impacts on others.
There are memories that I wish to bury away due to guilt, this is one of them. Of course, the person probably think the incident is so insignificant that does not worth a thought now. But I am not sure if I should even attempt to request to add the person in FB friend list. Sigh! Better don’t risk possible rejection.
I shall still continue to carry the guilt for a while.
But I am truly glad to see the person doing so well in both career and family.
