The Voices in my Head Get Louder
It's been nearly two weeks since my last post and here's what's happened: Not much. The internal debate that I have with myself regarding my future employment has grown. Part of me thinks I should just pull the trigger and quit so I can achieve some peace in not having to think about it anymore. Two weeks ago I met with the guy in charge of the practice here in Seattle and was told that they had a "client facing" position in mind for me. So that really doesn't tell me anything. So I'm not any close in knowing what I'll be doing if I don't quit. And if I am going to quit, I'm trying to time it just right so as to piss off as few people as possible. So do I quit now, and save some people the cost of keeping me around (and doing almost nothing during this waiting time), or do I collect a few more pay checks, find out more definitively about what I'll be doing and then quit? And if I am going to wait, do I need to keep commuting 40-60 minutes each way every day to sit in a cube at the office waiting for someone to give me some work to do, or can I wait from home? There are so many questions, and I have a feeling that a year from now I'll look back and either think that it was ridiculous to even ponder these questions, or I'll look back and think of what a huge mistake I made. I can say for this week, I'll remain employed. Maybe next week I'll pull the trigger on this decision. On a related note, I did get this fortune with my dinner last night:
