"You _KNOW_ you don't fit in around here."

Those were the words of my co-worker: "You know you don't fit in around here."

It's actually the best compliment that I've gotten at work in a long time.

The point he was trying to make is probably better explained with his next couple of sentences (paraphrased here). "You are much too smart for the job you do. Not that your job doesn't need smart people, but you could be doing much bigger things. If you wanted, you could get a management position in a heartbeat." When someone else asked why I wasn't a manager then...

I just smiled, and said "His first premise is the important one. I haven't decided that I want that position yet."

I shouldn't let it go to my head, though. I am happy with all that I have and will find what I need next when the time is right.
