How to leave when:
1. A lot of my current colleagues are rotating out, and I would be the most experienced person the department, so they will need me here to run ongoing projects
2. A lot of people have vested in time and effort to try and "groom" me..
3. A lot of work and projects are pending, as the entire suite of product at the end of the days, boils back down to me, cuz I handle all the media
4. I can almost sense and breath the expectations on me and the need for me to perform and excel so that those who have been "selling" can say.. see, I told you she's good...
So how? the problem is not that I am not doing well, the problem is that the company is not paying well... and the benefits are not exactly the best in the world...
Tough decisions... tough... of course the plan now is to just start looking and only move when it's really too good a job to say no to. But there is this sense of responsibility towards the projects.. oohhh.. all my babies.. and I cannot follow up on them and ensure that they're in good hands.. BAH!!!!!
All About the Grouch
- The Smiley Grouch
- Past forty and excited about reaching this milestone in life. Should I celebrate with an African Safari or head to the Poles for a dog-drawn sleigh ride? Ups and downs, opinions about life and things in general, my country (my beautiful red dot) and oh yah... Left the rat race and started my own business some time back. Still surviving, still having fun and still learning... What's your life story?

You are so contradicting yourself..
But it's a feeling that we all have to go through when making the decision - to leave or not to leave.
A painful decision when you're there, coz you've gotten attached to the projects / environment.
A decision well made will give you a better future.
