The One Year Anniversary
Today marked my one year anniversary at work. It’s interesting the difference a year makes.
Time does eventually put situations into perspective.
I started with uncertainty and a little bit of unease; I was leaving a very secure (but unsatisfying) position for a job that I wasn’t a hundred percent sure of. On paper, it seemed the perfect job for a bleeding heart like me while in reality it’s better suited for the trust fund kind.
On my first day, I remember mumbling “what have I done?” repeatedly to myself.
A year on I’m still a little uncertain but it’s probably the wisest decision I’ve ever made.
I enjoy what I do, I’m making a difference (albeit small) in people’s life and I’ve learned to dial down the cynicism a little.
