New Week, New Job...


I quit my job two weeks ago, after a decade with the same company. I start a new job Monday. It is exciting and unnerving, a great opportunity and a huge change.

As this decision and huge transition has been the focus of my life for the past several weeks, I have wanted to blog about it, and didn't know what to write. So I googled "New Job"... and I found: job listings, career change advice, consultants looking for money, books for sale, and some really questionable offshore jobs.

And I found these two signs, which made me laugh, and isn't laughter the best way to deal with change?

Thanks all, first day was great, very positive and my head is filled with about 865 bit of information and areas of focus. Now I gotta take the next couple of weeks to connect all those dots!
