With an excellent new job offer on the table for
a couple of months, I had the time to plan a nice
and relaxing transition period before hand in my
resignation next week.
Having been working for 15+ years, this is actually
the first time I did not "plan" a vacation with the family
because I wanted to experience what it feels like not
to have to do anything everyday. I took 2 weeks off
with the intention just to relax. It felt weird the first
couple of days, like I was doing something wrong, like
I should be doing something. By the middle of the
first week, I felt relaxed and at ease with myself. Then
I started to feel very energetic around the house. I
ended up doing a bunch of chores which I didn't think
I had the energy to tackle. It was a wondering feeling.
Now regarding the new job, I am quite excited about it.
I can't stand my current job, a situation caused purely by
a couple of malicious and totally self-centered ###holes.
To those who also hate their jobs -- you always have
the power to make a change for the better no matter
how bad a situation may look. You've got to believe in
yourself.
I had posted here before that my plan is to reach FI
in 7-8 years. Well, with my new gig, that should be
shortened significanly! Wish me luck!! Thank you.
