Today I announced to my team leader my intention to leave work. Or rather, my intention to seek alternative employment, while remaining at current job until I secure said employment. They need me, I need them. It’s a good situation while it lasts, but hopefully it won’t need to last too long.
This weekend I’m going to go through and write up answers to the selection criteria of a whole lot of Govt jobs. That’s what I’m hoping to get into – the Government. I feel like this is my opportunity to make a change, branch out, get out of banking & finance. I’m going to make the most of it. It’s scary, but in a positive way (if that makes sense, or is even possible in the real world and not just the imagined one in my head…)
We were helped out this evening by some of the people from another department. I said to them “Have you reevaluated your perception of the degree of difficulty of our jobs?” and they said, “We always knew you worked hard!”.
I put up the Christmas tree on the weekend. Napoleon enjoyed it for a little while, then quickly lost interest. Unlike Christian’s cat, Neo, who has made the Christmas tree his private retreat. Napoleon is more interested in chasing the baubles he batted off the bottom branches of the tree.
