So if you frequent my blog (at least recently), you probably read about how I changed jobs… While I do enjoy my work and I know it’s a great career move, frankly I don’t like the person I’m becoming. I find that I have a shorter temper than before (and I already have a bad temper to begin with), I’m tired all the time and I don’t look forward to going to work in the morning anymore. I think the thing that bothers me the most is I can’t spend as much time with Brandon during the week… I get home after 7PM now and after we have dinner I get to spend maybe 30-45 minutes with him before he goes to bed. 🙁

I’m about a month and a half into my new career and I certainly don’t feel as lost as before but progress is frustratingly slow. I wish there were more training (if any) or heck I’d settle for a procedural manual (something that I’m putting together as I’m learning the ropes) as jumping in feet first into this type of situation is just so overwhelming. Friends and family tell me things will get better as time goes on and yeah I know it will, I just hope I don’t drown before I get to that point.

Brandon gets me through the day. Whenever I’m frustrated or down, I look at his picture and tell myself that I’m doing this for him and my family. I can’t fail, I must succeed as I have no other choice.

Sigh I brought some work home with me as I didn’t want to stay late at the office so I guess I better get on with that now. I do feel better after I write my thoughts, perhaps I’ll do that more often… I’ll save the really bad stuff for private posts though.
