I gave my 2 weeks notice at work today. I was actually emotional about it, I don't know what is going on with me, but I never used to cry or get sappy. Now, I cry at commercials. Anyway, the issue of working is something I have struggled with. I was only working part-time so I felt that the scheduling and time management would not be an issue.
I've worked for this company for almost 10 years (with a little parental leave thrown in now and again). I know it was only a retail job, but it was still 10 years, most of those years were full-time management.
They were great at working around my schedule, once I became a mother. It's just that lately, I haven't been able to give 100% and that isn't who I am.
I guess this forces me to start thinking about the future. Once the girls are in school full-time I am going to have to reevaluate what type of work I'd be interested in. Perhaps a return to school one of these days??
Follow your heart, it is always hard to move on, but think of all of the new adventures.
ReplyDeleteI am always up for me school, but that is just the mini-geek in me. I LOVE school.
Me too Wendy. I always did love school (although I did get a little side-tracked in University and could have done better!)
ReplyDeleteI am thinking of going back too. I had to postpone the PhD work, but I could do some certificate courses.
ReplyDeleteAww, I'm sorry you're feeling emotional.
ReplyDeleteI love being home with my girly, I'm planning on going back in September too. I work for CRA and I'm not liking the thought of going back at all! Which is weird, because I LOVE my job, maybe I should say loved!
