Avenging Washcloth, An unhurried sense of time is, in itself, a form of wealth.

Started conversation Jan 18, 2007

This is hardly a decision that will shake the world... but you never know. smiley - winkeye

Today, I told my boss that I didn't want my job any more. I'm waaaaaaaaay past being burned out. I will work out a long notice of perhaps two months or so, in order to launch my replacement and make the transistion easier for everyone involved.

Finally, I can move on. Part of me knows I should be out-of-my-mind frantic about quitting my job, but strangely, a complete calm has enveloped me regarding this decision. It was the right thing to do.

Oh, I heard that it's very important to spell-check your resume, AW! Don't forget! smiley - tongueout

I know how unhappy you've been at this job. I think it's a good move to leave. You'll find a fit that suits you in a new job. It might not happen right away, but it'll happen. My sister recently went through this, and it took her a couple of tries, but she's now in a position where she likes the work, where they treat her well, and with respect. She was so glad she got out of her bad situation.

Hey, maybe we can start an agency when I move to Ohio! "2 Broads Agency" Our motto: "You want *what*?! smiley - laugh"

Sounds like a good idea, Shea! smiley - laugh

Two Broads Agency - "When you absolutely, positively don't need it overnight, or next week, even."

Actually, I've spent the last few days feeling a bit stunned and numb. I know I need to get going, but there's a lot of personal evaluation to go through, such as.... "What the hell do I really want to do?"

This is why adults constantly quiz children about what they want to be when they grow up.... we're looking for ideas. smiley - tongueout

Okay, I think I see one of your problems here. You said you quiz children about what they want to be when they grow up. Maybe you should try that one of these days ... just as an option, ya know ... growing up, that is ... nah, bad idea, takes all the fun out of life. Forget I said anything. smiley - whistle
