I gave my two weeks notice today, I have had my fill of oil companies and I have especially had my fill of the outsourcing model. feels weird after being with the same company for almost a decade.

oddly enough, I feel like an incredible weight has been lifted from my shoulders.

Hey, you got to do what makes you happy. Any prospects on new employment? (Or?)

Good luck muldoon. I hope this is an improvment for you. You've got to do what makes you happy.

There's nothing worse than dragging into a job you hate every day.

Good luck with the new one!

Hope all goes well with you! It's pretty scary to change jobs after that long of a time. I was planning on retiring from my job at the VA last month (July) after 20 yrs - been counting the months & days but the closer I got to the date, the more I thought about the good things I liked about my job - the people I take care of & the people I work with. In spite of all the messed up stuff w/administration & their priorities sometimes, I love what I'm doing, it is always interesting & I feel like I am helping people & besides that, the pay isn't shabby either...

So what more can you ask for from a job? I've worked in several fields (banking for 10 yrs) & can truly say that going back to school to get my nursing degree at the age of 35 was the best decision I've made career-wise.

Sometimes you just know when it is time to leave...
