I know I haven't been updating much on LJ, but a few weeks ago I accepted a position with another company. This is my last week at my current job, and I've been spending the past week or so going through things in my office.
The fact that I'm leaving after a 10 year tenure is finally starting to sink in, and I'm really pretty much disconnected with the work now. Sure, there's stuff to do (as always), but the fact that I'm only here for five more days means I don't want to start any major projects. Yet at the same time I don't want to sit here for five days doing nothing but brainless work. What to do....
I could write some
porn lovely poetry. :)
But seriously, I would be lying if I said I won't miss things here. But I know it isn't the job I'll be missing...it will be the familiarity, and the routine (as well as the friendships I've formed). The job itself (as those of you who have read my blogs in the past know) is not a good environment. My new job (God willing) will be a new start, more money, fully paid benefits, and the opportunity to grow. Stagnation breeds depression, and I've really been feeling the brunt of it on and off for too long. It was time to make this change, and if truth be told, I'm sure it's very much overdue.
The new job will also mean I won't be spending my days logged onto the internet (which I shouldn't be doing anyway *wink wink*). It will also mean I'll lose my office. But what are perks when you're not happy? I'd much rather have a professional environment than a small cubbyhole anyday.
Now, I'm off to write that
porn file some stuff...or something.
