My mom's husband (my step-father - hard to come to grips with at 30...) informed me the other day that I would be joining yet-another-Kate in the leagues of the great unwashed. I laughed because he is quite funny. Yet it is difficult to come to terms with being unemployed. I think it would be easier if Matt were a Trump or a Rockefeller (the not-missing type).
After a couple of really really shitty days I decided that I would resign from my place of work. I found that being treated like shit doesn't feel all that good after awhile. I had been looking for alternate employment before I resigned and had felt that I would be more comfortable finding a job before I resigned but life doesn't always work out that way...
I have had one job offer since I put myself on the market, but I think that I need to take a little bit of time out from the world and make peace with this whole set of events before I get on with things.
So...
I know the feeling (that you're worth more in the workplace, not that my father is funny. By the way, have you seen his spoon trick?)
ReplyDeleteI think sometimes you have to walk away from something so that another opportunity can present itself. At least we're in a fortunate position of having the space to think about the future.
Oh and I'm totally washing. Every other day.
