So, I told my boss that June 6th was going to be my last day at this job… Kinda strange feeling and bittersweet. 1st job outta college, love the people, hate the company’s management and politics. Found another job and got an offer I couldn’t turn down; 30% Salary increase, and 10% equivalent salary increase in benefits (reduced Healthcare costs, and much better 401K); so net 40% raise. :headbang: First “real” job I’ve ever quit, kinda strange feeling… Nervous about leaving, and excited for the new job… ---
