Work update

So the company that I work for, that I joined back in January as the second developer and the 5th employee, is now a company of 9, and possibly 10 people. Now rather than just 2 developers, it's 5 (soon probably 6 or 7), one of whom doubles as project manager. It doesn't sound like much, but effectively the development team has practically tripled in the past few months.

It kinda sucks. I came here thinking a small company would be fun to work for, more casual, more loosy goosy. Which to be fair it is. But I didn't envision that what I was looking at as a fun way to make a decent paycheck is now becoming sort of stressful because of the growth. Projects galore, and even though I'm going to try to maintain only 40 hours a week, I know more would be welcomed to further the company. And the new hires are all for the most part work oriented, rather than life oriented, which is really the part that frustrates me.

People who are so work oriented aren't really fun to work with, and since they're kind of geeky they think they're know it alls. They don't mind working until 8 at night, which I very much oppose. They don't mind shortening deadlines, and taking on more work.

I know I sound lazy, but to be honest, I don't really care. I liked the "old company" better.
