Great news!!
But its something that anyone that knows me will be extremely shocked to hear. What is it?!......
I quit my job Friday! I've vented here multiple times about how much of a dictator my boss is; how manipulative and greedy he is; how mean and accusatory, etc. I got sick of it. My long time coworker quit about 4 weeks ago and things got so much worse that I ever could've imagined. My boss completely ignored my being honest when I said I didn't want to take over his work on top of everything else I was doing. I had an opportunity offered to me when I wasn't even looking and after H and I sat down for weeks figuring out if we could do it (it will be a paycut), we decided it would be stupid for me to not accept it. I am starting first thing tomorrow at the new place (after my boss completely ticked me off not giving me any choice but a 6 month time frame for him to try and hire and train someone else!!) and I'm so excited. I thought I would be freaking out, scared but so far I feel great. Like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.
I'm nervous and scared for such a huge change (I was at the other place for over 11 years!!), but I know deep down in my heart this was the right thing to do. I can't wait to start the new job. Eeeeeeeekkkkkkk!!
Re: Great news!!
Congratulations.
I've realized that if I follow the morale a job gives me from doing it, the money will follow me. You'll be surprised at how quickly that pay cut disappears when you actually enjoy what you're doing.
