Today’s the last day at work on my current workplace.
I have been there almost two years and have found my “calling” or whatever you want to call it. I have really mixed feelings; on other hand it is nice to get a place more closer home, but it’s hard to leave damn good workmates behind.
I don’t know what future holds, but I think I am going to try my best to take me forward.
This is probably what they call bittersweet.
hey bare minimum ya taking that chance going out of comfort zone, could pay off or not but ya get experience either way (really hope it works out)
I quit my job little over year ago and moved to another town. I have about 3 years until my pension. I made calculations and came to a conclusion that I don’t need to work anymore. I should be ok with my savings till my pension. Only thing I miss my job is my good workmates.
maybe look for somewhere to volunteer or help out a few hours a week to keep up these sorts of relationships
I have been thinking about it. So far I have spent a lot of time in local bowling alley and met few nice people there… 
Haha, I get that too. Lot of nice people at the pub here too 
After two decades of being stuck in the rut, I found my calling almost a decade ago, - it’s literally life-changing, and meaningful in ways I still can’t explain. I have about 16 more years before I can retire, but at the same time, whether or not I get there, it’s the journey that counts.
Would I retire tomorrow? Hell yes, - but at the same time, finding what balance works for you is the key point, no matter where you are in your work life. Good luck!
Well congratulations!
I wish you luck in finding a better job. Still being a student and seeing what is going in the field I want to in, which is software development, and elsewhere in the job market currently, it does seem scary, but I hold the hope that an extra pair of hands and a decently functioning brain are enough to get me some jobs before I will eventually have to specialize.
love the positive (can do) attitude. had a really big week (well 2 days but yer) and needed this
Best of luck man! Definitely bittersweet but I hope all works out well - you can only control what you can control.
