Posted by TacDical Does anyone else have a problem exploring certain areas due to work conflict, I'm talking drains tunnels abandonments cranes etc any form |
The short answer is no, and I have an awesome job. Your calculus may differ depending on your field of work, but here are some of my thought processes: What if I get busted for climbing a crane in my hometown and end up on the news? What if I'm arrested and can't call/email in before missing a day of work? Then again, what if I never saw these things because I was riddled with fear? What if I eliminated risk in all aspects of my life?
For me, exploring is about separating rational and irrational fears. And the chances of
a) being caught
b) charged with a crime
c) unable to contact my boss to call in to work
d) going through the embarrassment of dealing with my boss/HR
e) actually losing my job
f) all the other steps I'm not aware of because this scenario has never happened to me
all these are inconsequential in comparison to the satisfaction I get from exploring.
