Working in Utopia?

I've had enough of it!

Enough of moaning about my so called nearly-quarter-life-crises (not crisis but crisEs, because things are ten times worse with me...)

Having finished my final 13 week work placement, one thing that has been constantly bugging me is this naivety that seems to be ingrained in me. I have had 1.5 years of work placements and yet I have not come to grips with adult interactions in the work place. I do not consider myself or my friends adults.
Adults to me are people who have more wrinkles than worries, people who have had had a "career" for longer than I have been alive, people who are computer illiterate and remember when freak weather actually were freak occurences and not something which happens every other day. My naivety lead me to assume that being in an adult environment there would be R.E.S.P.E.C.T resonating in the air, an ambience of wisdom enveloping the "team", well meant advice kindly being shared. What I actually found left me dumbstruck and yearning for my years of hell in secondary school. Nicknames like "The poison dwarf" had me in stitches at first, but then with all the other characters in the office emerging on day 2, I was left a bit disillusioned with the whole working world. You had the one who constantly devaluates your worth, the one who wants your team to be hung-drawn-and-quartered for the tiniest mistake, the manager who never backs your team up, the lazy let down in your team, etc. etc. Imagine the horror when I realised playground games are far from over in adulthood, they just get a bit more serious. But seriously, what did I expect? Surely not Utopia?
