Work and no play?

---

It is difficult enough to receive negative feedback regarding your performance at work, but even harder when the feedback is about you personally.

Too loud, intimidating, too confident.... too much really.

I find myself questioning my career path, and that really scares me. 6 years in HR and being told I would be better suited to a career where my apparent faults would be seen as a attribute. Is it my career choice, or perhaps just this specific work place?

Working within such a specific function of HR has limited my skills, cut short the people interaction that I have always strived on. What is a good field for me?
I try to think back to other business I have worked with and I see a common theme where I tend to fail, business which rely on stats, cut off’s and ratings my success is limited. Other roles where I deal with daily duties in a adhoc manner and self management I excel, or perhaps if there were tangible ratings I would have seem that I was failing these roles as well.

No longer happy in my role, I still cling to the company. Why, I do not know. Why don’t I move on? I have been approached my other companies yet I stay here where I feel I am a liability and not an asset.

Is this just another ‘down’ period? Am I overreacting, or perhaps I simply feel unsecure as the company is currently undergoing cuts and I foresee myself as potential collateral damage.

I no longer look forward to going to work. I’m concerned that I will carry on this negativity outside of my 35 hours.

What’s the problem here! Just move on.
