Which is unsurprising to say the least. It's just the way things are done around here. Or should I say were done around here.
For a very long time, I put my job before everything. I worked really hard to get the promotions that I wanted. And I got them, but at the expense of canceled plans, health and happiness.
I considered taking a demotion in exchange for reduced hours and a more regular schedule. My employers declined, and I so I felt the need to decline to be employed by them.
So, after nearly five years of working for the same company, and another three previous to that, I walked away. No notice, no back up plan, nothing.
I just took this heavy burden that has been holding me back, and I put it down.
I'm not really sure where to go from here.
I live a pretty simple life, and thanks to the timing of things, I could probably remain unemployed for three months--maybe four, and still cover the basics.
I'd be lying to say there wasn't a good bit of anxiety involved, but I'm doing my best not to bow to it. This is an opportunity to fix all the things I was too "busy" to bother with.
Now that I've got no job, it's time to get to work.
