Resigned yesterday.
The company I originally wanted to work for have been talking to me for a couple of months and came back with a much improved offer. So Iām going there to sell tech to corporates. Reduces commute to work to about an hour, brilliant place to work, back in civilisation, away from Western Sydney. Moneyās great, opportunity is better. Finish here next week and then a week off. Flying it.
Fucking delighted for you @fitzy. And even happier for tfk who called it right from the start. If ever there was evidence needed that tfk should be involved in all of our big life choices, this is it. A superb result all round.
Indeed, though I will qualify it by saying that this original offer came with a month long wait to start, which greatly influenced my choice at the time. But itās all worked out in the end. CEO wasnāt too happy, but the reaction from colleagues here was interesting, everyone saying Iām doing the right thing and amazed I lasted so long, that I hadnāt a hope from the start etc.
Weāre in a 3/4 acre site out in the sticks. Had to decide whether to buy a ride-on mower or get someone in. Got a number of a chap who does it for ā¬30. Does strimming and sprays weed-killer for an extra ā¬20-ā¬30 every so often. Long term will probably get a ride-on but there are other holes for my money at the moment. That and Iām a useless townie cunt.
Delighted for my good e-friend @Fitzy ā meanwhile @Bandageās āfriendā is till gowling around a year later pondering making a change of career ā¦
