Did you hear the news???

I got a new job! It's about damn time! I'll be taking a step down from management but the financial upside alone is worth it and there will be growth opportunities in no time. You know what I always say; sometimes you have to take a step back in order to move forward in the right direction. I'm excited and nervous at the same time but I have faith in my abilities and I work hard so I know it's gonna be okay.

I thought I would be looking forward to quitting my current job but now that I'm about to, it's bittersweet. The company has a lotta shit it needs to get together but I'll miss working with some of the people. I also know the bosses are not going to be happy at all with my leaving and they're probably gonna pull out all the stops to get me to stay. Unfortunately, too little and FAR too late. Besides, I've been there long enough to know that anything they give you can and likely will at some point be taken away. There's no loyalty there and the only thing worse than a bunch of disloyal muthafuckas is a bunch of disloyal muthafuckas cutting my checks. No, thank you, sir.

I will do them the courtesy of working the week since I wont be starting the new gig until the week after my vacation ends. I'll make sure everything is properly handed over to whomever will be taking the reins on my projects and my team. Might even donate some deals to my team since I'm quite sure the powers that be will find some way to screw me out of those commissions anyway given that they wouldn't be paid until weeks after I'm gone. SOMEBODY ought to get paid.

So this is definitely a season of cheer for me and I'm definitely looking forward to bigger, better chapters. Speaking of, I'm literally writing some new ones while I'm on vacation. There are 2 things I'm promising myself to do this year as I turn 40; get a passport and publish ONE book. You heard it here first!
