The Country Club

I think the first day at my new job went well. Our office is on the top floor of the building and my cubby looks out over the highway and the river. It's a great view! Do you know how sometimes you just know you made the right decision? It's just a feeling in your heart or deep in your soul. That's the feeling I have about this job. I feel like this job has been waiting for me. I want to bring plant to the office and spruce up my area. I feel blessed.

I left the job at the country club. One might ask, "Why leave a job at the country club?" I left because I was seeking opportunity--that's the main reason. It was a country club because there were perks that I didn't realize were perks. For example, a coffee maker on every floor. That meant free coffee. Bottled water on every floor. That meant free bottled water. Reimbursement for parking.

For me opportunity outweighed the perks. I think I'm going to like my new job!

Great news, wealthy_1. I wish you the very best of luck with your new job -- may the opportunities be abundant and may you not miss the perks of the country club ;-)

Opportunities are better than perks. Perks are nice, but if they're the best thing about the job then there's a problem. Hence why I'm leaving mine.
