RE: Difficult...with a touch of gratitude

in Reflections10 days ago

I didn't know you'd moved on to something new,was this a recent thing?

It's nice to be appreciated and respected and those small tokens of gratitude probably helped you move on with confidence knowing you'd done the right thing. Well done.

Sort:  

I quit just before Christmas. I regret the choice in many ways, but administration above the level of branch manager had become completely intolerable, and the long-promised pay increase was accompanied by a reduction in hours. My job title was ranked well below the level of responsibilities I had assumed. It was difficult, and the absence of appreciation within the upper echelons of the organization for the people doing the work was palpable. My story is just one of many from other staff slighted in similar ways.

Hmm, that sounds like a familiar story I've heard from others. I also hear a lot about how awesome things are going generally, but don't see a lot of evidence of it. I hope you moved on to something better/more suited.

Honestly no. Winter has been a mix of sickness and sorting through stuff while I try to decide what comes next. I still need to cover one more stage of car repair/maintenance and then I plan to set out on a road trip to decide where to try putting down roots again. This area is dead to me aside from family connections.

I'm sure you'll plot out the right thing and move that way. Of course, there's often false starts and wrong paths but it's those that helps one find the right ones and the momentum to follow them. All the best.
