40K Apocalypse at SOGCON

It had been awhile since I last update this blog. Still alive and enjoying the hobby.

Scroll down for the Apocalypse pictures if you don't want to read my rant.



Many things happened in life since I last quit my previous job in 2014 to take a break from work and rethink life.
Got a job offer early this year from a company that I worked with before I quit my previous job in 2014.
Taking up the job offer in a different company but same industry was exciting as I would be doing something different and opportunities to learn and gain more experience. After 3 months into the job I decided to leave... Many factors contributed to my decision, every little things add up... but the main one was human relations.
Few weeks in the new job, I felt that the culture was quite strange... I'm an easy going and agreeable person to work with but I couldn't understand some of the people I work with and their ethics. I can only guess that they felt threaten by me joining the company. I decided to give myself some time before making any decisions, thinking that being a new guy in the new work environment I just had to adjust and adapt with time. The final straw was an incident (which I'm involved) happening when working onsite. This incident accelerated my decision to leave and not giving it more time so that it would work out.
Initially I thought that joining the new company would be something that give me a clear goal and future in life, but I'm filled with more self doubt than before I started. Now I'm just going to focus on getting a 40k army fully painted (at least 1850 points) and finding another job thereafter.




Anyway enough with my ranting/musing. Here are the pictures for the 40K Apocalypse the gaming group played in a recent gaming convention.

More pictures can be found in the gaming group blog.
