  • Like a cat, my job seems to have 9 lives. Everytime I contemplate leaving, something happens which delays this. The reasons usually are good: pay rise, bonus, position opening up, etc.  But for such a small company of 20 odd people, inordinate amounts of shit (read drama) goes on.  It's hard to deal with on a good day much less a bad day.  Also with such a small company, I've basically reached the top. Being a partner now, the only person above me is the CEO. 

    The equilibrium was just altered again a few days ago when our parent company ousted the CEO and instated a new one.  I definitely wasn't surprised by the announcement but this just means that I have a new boss effective immediately which means a whole new round of drama to contend with.  It's hard work.
