As some of you know, I’ve not been happy with my job.  A mix between “Swimming with Sharks” and “9 to 5″, I found myself miserable.  Life is not supposed to be spent being miserable, but happy.  I have worked very hard over my 10 year career and look back fondly on it and want to continue doing so.  So I did what many people would call crazy, foolish and idiotic.

I quit.

I’m lucky to be in a position where I know I’ll soon move on to a place that will fulfill me and let me continue to be a smart, hardworking, creative employee and be appreciated for my contributions.   But one thing I’ve learned over life is to go with your instincts.  And my instincts said taking this chance was in my best interest.  I’ll be far happier in my next job the less burnt out and bitter I am.   So I’m going to renew myself and be sure to find a healthy working environment, and a place where I can be a successful employee for years to come.  I’m excited for the next chapter of my career, I know it’s going to be the best yet.

I can feel it.
