Change is good (scary, but good)

Posted by amy on September 6th, 2008 filed in family

Mr. Man got offered a new job and he accepted. This makes me happy, but also scared. Money is better, benefits are better… But it’s always hard to make a change when you’re kind of OK in the role you already have. He enjoys the job he has now, but felt that it was time for a change. For making the change and going through with it, I’m proud of him. I just hope that the new role keeps him satisfied and happy enough to where he feels challenged and not burned out.

The schedule is also a factor. It’s more of a mid-shift instead of 1st shift like he’s working now. I think going in later will be good for him, but nobody likes to get out later. And this may screw with our G pick up/drop off schedule a little.

I guess we just need to jump in feet first and do what’s best financially for our family. We can work out the details (together) later on.

Overall though, I’m pretty excited! If he can just get over that uncomfortable hump of giving his 2 weeks notice today, he should be fine. :) Nobody likes to give notice.

Especially when your boss has no idea that it is coming

Actually, wow… I totally don’t envy his position!
