A Change Has Done Me Good!

I started my new job last Monday and after only a week the decision to leave my old job, for one that pays me a lot less, continues to feel like the right one. For those of you who weren’t aware I had even changed jobs, I am now working as a web marketer for an ad agency downtown. This is new territory for me, but I am learning a lot and feel the skills I am learning will be a great asset to me in the future. Who knows, with all the SEO and social media skills Mr. S is also exploring with his internship maybe one day we can start our own business.

Top things I love about the new job:

1. Bagel Fridays- This is our weekly staff meeting and although we had muffins this week it is nice to be in a meeting where only good news is shared.

2. My sweet 24-inch Mac.

3. An office where the IT guy actually knows how to fix a computer problem.

4. Toilets that flush, an actual breakroom, and a receptionist to cover the phone during lunch.

5. Wearing jeans everday if I want.

6. Riding an elevator to the office.

7. Having actual work to do and feeling like I am contributing to something of real value, instead of made-up busy work.

I miss my peeps at the old place and know we will stay in touch, but in this case the grass really is greener on the other side.

    That’s so awesome! I hope it works out for you. It’s strange, isn’t it, when the Spirit tells you to do something that logic says will fail? It sounds way fun; I’m totally jealous!

    I am glad that you are happy with your new job, and I am glad that it and Matt have pushed you to work on the better team (Go Apple). Now if only I can find my new job…
