Handing in my resignation letter today.

Its even harder to do because I really DONT want to leave my job, but I have such a great opportunity - I'd be a total fool to pass up.

I spoke to my boss on Friday thinking (& kind of hoping) she would counter-offer or at least give me a reason to want to stay here. Total negative. By the end of our hour & a half conversation, she pretty much sealed the deal for me. She couldnt guarantee me anything in terms of salary increase or growth within the firm - now or ever! Easy come easy go. I told her I'd think about it over the weekend, and did.

I hate leaving somplace I am so comfortable with. Chat Icon Even worse, I hate being the "new girl".. ughhh!!!

Wish me luck.

I am in your exact situation, I handed in my resignation last week and went through the same conversation with my boss. Even with minor promotions and raises, I will never get past a certain point at this job. I know its scary being "the new girl", getting into a new routine, mastering new tasks, etc. but just remember...there was a reason you started looking for another job, and a reason you couldn't pass up this opportunity.

Lots of luck!

Janie,

I know how uncomfortable you must feel leaving a job after so many years, but I guarantee you, if you just focus on the positive aspects of taking a chance on this new opportunity you will not be disappointed! I am so excited for you sweetie!!!!!!!

Are you going to be downtown?

As a "new girl" myself, I can tell you it's not so bad. Reinvent yourself at work, and avoid mistakes you've made in the past. Chat Icon
